I shop here often for all my friend’s birthdays and I’ve never failed to find just the right gift for each of them!

My wife and I have shopped for art for our home in Tulsa, Springfield, Kansas City, Carthage and Eureka Springs. When we stop in Local Color Art Gallery to view the art of local artists, we are always impressed by the high quality of art available in all mediums. We’ve bought many beautiful items there.

The workshops I’ve taken at Local Color Gallery provided great instruction, a creative atmosphere, and were very enjoyable.

I’ve visited the gallery several times and each time I come in, I see something new and I meet someone new. You are all so pleasant and fun to talk to. I’d love to just live down there. I just had no idea that we had SO MANY talented artists in this area. Not only painting, but sculpting, pottery, wood work, almost everything you could ask for to decorate your home. When my sister moves here, she’s excited to visit.

Great place to purchase regional artist’s work for gifts and for your home. Reasonable prices and really outstanding pieces from jewelry to miniatures. Love Jack Divine’s tables and Steve H glass as well as April’s paintings and Margie’s new group of flower paintings. So much more…

I had so much fun at Vino & Van Gogh. It was by far the best time I’ve ever had painting!

Local Color Art Gallery is one of the nicest galleries…and in such a beautiful building! It has a regional feel.

I look at my painting of April (Davis Bruner)”s every single day and I feel blessed by it!

Local Color Art Gallery hosts a variety of mediums as wonderful as you would see at any famous gallery anywhere. There are paintings, sculptures, glassworks, jewelry, tiles, and much more. The artists there take turns hosting the gallery and are great to visit with. It is well worth a visit!
