Ripe Art Gallery is more than a gallery, it's an experience! Each time I attend an event, I am greeted with warmth and genuine appreciation from both the owner, Cheri, as well as the artist(s). Their collection of locally made, one of a kind gifts and eclectic art/framework blows away any competition (as if there was any).

I have even brought my then infant daughter to events and was surprised to see other children there (depending upon the event, mind you). Being a parent and wanting to have a night out don't always mix, however, I loved that I wasn't looked down upon for having a baby at an exhibit and that my little one was able to get a kick start on her art appreciation.

I would recommend Ripe to any and everyone I meet (and have) for special gifts, a place to meet amazingly talented people and an all around great time.
