There are lots of options here (photography, painting, jewelry, ceramics), in gallery/studio-like spaces, but none of the art was especially good...

A collection of artist/artisan studios showcasing a variety of medium. Definitely worth checking out, perhaps for a special, handcrafted gift.

The place to go if you want something unique, fun, affordable or just to support local artists. Plenty of fine restaurants and top rated hotels nearby. Why not visit right down the road from The Farmer's Market and Figge Art Museum?

Contains a number of artist studio-shoppes... good variety of art styles and prices are reasonable. Enjoyed browsing around with out of town friends.

A mix of little shops that range from weird to funky to intriguing. The art is all over the map. I enjoyed an odd little shop in the back (General Assembly) that had some funky jewelry, hats, wraps and T-shirts. The place has a business incubator feel to it. It needs more out-there artists to achieve its full funky potential.
