Yaquina Art Association — Attraction in Newport

1st time for me and was astounded at the amount and variety of items. Gallery represents quite a few artists. Paintings from oil to watercolors and can purchase originals to copies. Clay works and jewelry galore. Was impressed by the variety of subject matter and displays. I was able to buy an original with artist's signature at a very reasonable price. Even though I did purchase some copies the price's were not that expensive for the originals. When first enter there are 2 good sized rooms and the right side(facing the ocean)is where the majority of the paintings are. The variety was overwhelming as to subject matter and price points were very reasonable so I believe that something original is within most peoples budget. The idea of being able to afford a signed original from a local artist with local subject matter is just wonderful. My original signed painting is of a blue heron which is one of my favorite birds and am in the process of choosing a frame that will be able to show case this beautiful bird. Parking can be tight as gallery is next to ocean and the parking area is somewhat adequate but always busy. Admission is free and you will not be disappointed. I only got to see the right side of the gallery so am looking forward to visiting...

Always a visual treat to peak into the Yaquina Art Association Gallery, a true local gem in our community and they’ve got some great last minute Christmas gifts! And it supports our local artists! Since 1947, the association has supported local creativity with free art classes, a gallery for artists, and scholarships for students. It’s located in a historic building nearby, built in 1914 by the Nye Beach Improvement Society as a restroom for bathers and “surfwalkers” to dry out....
