YOUR LOCAL ART GALLERY
25+ ARTISTS
Artists represent a swath of mediums, styles, and influences
bringing their unique inspirations to our local community to enjoy.
GATHER
A ten-foot gathering table makes space for classes and intimate conversation. Or easy sharing of art supplies while crafting together.
LOCAL IMPACT
All the work in the Gallery is 100% local, meaning your money goes right to artists creating in and across the Valley!
HOW IT WORKS...
1. Rent space monthly at $20 per linear foot
(Side to side -2.5' Minimum)
2. Sell your work and keep 80%.
3. The other 20% of your sales goes back into the gallery for events, marketing you as an artist and other artist-forward opportunities.
YOUR SUCCESS IS OUR SUCCESS!
Artists are reviewed and selected by a community panel on a quarterly basis. We welcome painting/drawing, digital, ceramics, mixed media, fiber/leather, photography, jewelry, sculpture, metal/wood, more!

Currently Featuring
Femme Locale: SEEN | SCENE | CENE
The Mill District Local Art Gallery is excited to welcome Femme Locale back to the Front Window Gallery. Please join us for a celebratory reception on Friday, May 9 from 5-7pm. Meet the artists and enjoy complementary light refreshments.
SEEN | SCENE | CENE is a group juried exhibition of artwork by local trans women, cis women, intersex, genderqueer, genderfluid, and non-binary people. Curated by Christine Texiera and Alexia Cota, this exhibition is in the spirit of the Thrive Together Network's encouragement for women to show all in the same month - Taking. Up. Space initiative.
Artists were invited to create new work or select work that responds to the exhibition title, SEEN | SCENE I CENE. Contemplating representation, being SEEN, acts needed to be seen, both by us as artists and as citizens, what's needed in the world. The SCENE both physically and environmentally. And CENE, a suffix that denotes how changes, when continued, can be seen as a whole era.
“One of the most vital ways we sustain ourselves is by building communities of resistance, places where we know we are not alone.” - bell hooks
The Mill District Local Art Gallery is donating space and sales commission to support this cause.
Exhibit runs Sunday, May 4 through Thursday, June 26, 2025.
