We are in the season of Winter,
right? It is January...but it doesn't
'feel' like it!
I am NOT COMPLAINING and I know shortly after I put this out there it will probably get really Cold and Snow...Ahhh!
Sorry, I just had a flashback of when we lived in Michigan or it could have been Wisconsin...either way, it was cold and it snowed a lot! We have nothing to complain about here compared to there weatherwise, believe me...
Now, what was my point? Oh yeah, no matter what the weather or time of year it is always a great time to check out all the new original art at Art Trends Gallery!!
Check out all the new art like - jewelry, ceramics, glasswork, sculptures, paintings, giclee's,
and unique gift items!
You should see us now, we're still "growing" quite nicely...
We have arranged and re-arranged everything (again)...the gallery is looking fabulous! Come see all of the new work our local and regional artists have been bringing in, and don't forget our exquisite collection of international art.
Check our calendar or give us a call to see what's happening...we've been busy here at Art Trends. New artists, new art and lot's of new events are coming!
Happy Anniversary Art Trends Gallery....6 Years young

Post-Valentine Party/Artists' Reception
Otherwise known as "Let's Do Something in February to Stimulate our own Economy, Party." Well, we definitely stimulated something....not exactly sure how many attended, but we were very busy until we kicked out the last person to leave, I mean "asked" the last person to leave (very nicely of course :) around 10pm. Lots of artists, customers, friends, family and neighbors all enjoyed good food, great wine and wonderful entertainment! Not to mention all the amazing original art that we had the pleasure of experiencing from our own talented artists! The pics are up and running...enjoy!

First Annual Chesterfield - Art Gallery Hop
If you missed it well, you missed it! But not to worry, we are already planning the Second Annual Chesterfield - Art Gallery Hop, for October 2009. Stay tuned...it will only be bigger and better. I believe we had between 150-200 people come thru these doors that night which turned out to be a lovely evening altogether! New art, artists, food, drink, entertainment and a lot of fun was the on the agenda and we did not disappoint...the only complaint was, it should have been longer. Our scheduled time frame was 5pm to 9pm - people started coming around 4:30 and it slowed just a bit around 9:30 - the last of our guests ended up leaving about 10:30pm! Next year will be longer...enjoy some current pics from this event!
