Arts and entertainment in Beaverton, OR

This gallery is located in the Pearl District, sitting among other galleries along 12th Avenue. With featured artists' work up front, you will not want to miss these unique pieces from your first glance in the door. Toward the back are smaller pieces, paintings, glassware and statues created by many of the gallery artists. The incredibly helpful staff members are willing to let you linger over pieces in silence or if you prefer, they will explain the techniques used by the creator of each piece.
