RAL Art Center

NO FINER REPRESENTATION OF LOCAL ARTISTS' WORK IN THE NORTHERN NECK! GREAT variety of paintings, pottery, textiles, sculpture, jewelry, etc. They have New Shows in their Main Gallery on the First Fridays of each month, with a reception from 5 - 7 P.M. (AND they offer many different classes for every level of "artist".) Plan to stay and browse, as there is always so much to see! Great well-priced Gift Shop, too! I LOVE THIS GALLERY and I know you will, too!

As a former Nyer, my interest in the Arts is well established. I heard of events at this gallery and made it my business to visit it a few times. While I consider myself a truly tough judge of talent including my own, I must say I did see some emerging talents represented here. Not all were in the same caliber, I noticed some very talented clever jewelry designers, artists, plus some emerging photographers to appreciate.

During their events, a vibrant group of Art Lovers fill this space and review the work represented here. We need cultural venues and surely this helps serve that need. Plus it's right in Town, so you can walk to restaurants or visit those noteworthy antique shops nearby too! Go there absorb more culture, and discover new local talents to collect or follow!

This is one of the first "storefronts" on Main Street that made such an impression on me when visiting the area for the first time 3 years ago, looking for a place to call home. It was the end of January and bitter cold when I walked by looking in the windows. A volunteer coaxed me in and I stayed for hours. Our community is incredibly fortunate to have this art center.

This gallery is the best in the Virginia River Realm. Plus it has a new studio for classes! You all need to see the incredible art.

Such a talented and stimulating experience. This is the floral arrangement that graced the desk the last time I was there! Improv of one of our talented member artists!

Great area artist staff is great always willing to assist you with any questions you may have.

Take time to visit - You will love the Art Works

They don't answer emails or phone messages. When I asked for help on the Facebook page, the volunteer told me to call the office.
