"Lovely artwork!" "Great store!" "Beautiful pieces!" "Speechless!!" "Wonderful things" "I didn't expect this here!" These are some of the comments from recent visitors to our gallery and they come from Arizona, Michigan, New Hampshire, Oregon, Australia, Guatemala, Spain and Thailand. All were surprised and impressed with the number of artists from the Dassel area and the variety and quality of the work exhibited.

The studios, located at 301 Atlantic Avenue West in Dassel, Minnesota, feature a premier Fine Art Giclée Printmaking and Digital Photo studio, a custom framing studio and an art gallery representing local and regional artists. We represent 25+ Minnesota and regional artists working in oil, acrylic, watercolor, colored pencil, photography, sculpture, jewelry, ceramics, woodturning, leatherwork and more. Several of our artists have notecard editions of their work. Most are archivally printed and suitable for framing, allowing a very affordable way for you to collect a mini-gallery of outstanding artwork.
