Northcoast Artists Gallery

Every time I am on the Mendocino Coast, I make it a priority to stop in the Northcoast Artist Gallery. If you only have time to check out one gallery this is the gallery to visit. OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!

Love this place, great place to get Christmas gifts. Have many items that I have purchased from the same artist throughout the years, various artists.

Visited for a few days, originally I had plans to leave town Friday morning but stopped in to this gallery. Found wonderful whale sculptures which had not been priced since I followed the artist from her car holding a whale sculpture in to the gallery. It was her first day at the gallery and she was setting up. After waiting a couple of hours for the items to be priced, I decided to come back the next week.

I looked up the hours online (11-5 M-Sun). I live a couple of hours away, an hour in to my 2.5 hour drive I decided to call the gallery as I would be getting in to town around 4:30. I wanted to ensure they would be open. The lady that answered informed me that they close at 4. When I said I had drove an hour already, thinking they closed at 5 - her response was “oh sorry, that was from before Covid”.

It’s November, Covid has been around for 8+ months and is no longer a proper excuse. Safe to say, I’ve given up on purchasing a whale sculpture. Their “new hours” are supposedly 11-4 Fri-Mon... very far from what is posted online.

Bummer for the brand new artist who would have sold two whale sculptures today.

I also have since suggested google updated hours via the app.
