Bier Art Gallery & Pottery Studio — Attraction in Norwood Township

I love this place and I make a point to visit at least twice a year. The gallery has a wide variety of artists and price points. Some artwork is purely decorative, but they also carry art with practical use, including pottery, purses & scarves, jewelry, furniture, and more. There are items for $25 and for $5,000, but I suspect most work falls in the range of $50 to $500. Whether you're interested in buying or not, it's fun to spend time looking at all the beautiful craftsmanship. If you're lucky, you may even see pottery being made in the studio. The staff (including the Bier family) is friendly and helpful, and I've never felt pressured to buy. Don't be afraid to ask if something is available in a different color or size because the Biers have many artists who accommodate requests.

Such a great variety of artist's work on display and it's always fun to visit during the fall open house when you can watch various artists working on their creations. We are always looking forward to...

Lovely little gallery with lots of quirky items. 90 different artists contribute their talents to keep the gallery fully stocked. The metal pieces displayed outside were some of my favorites. If I had a large enough home and didn't have a fixed income... I would love to have the white egret sculpture gracing my walls. It's a phenomenal piece. The wood pieces, especially the jewelry boxes were just dying to go home with someone. The staff on duty were very informative and friendly. If I ever become flush with cash, I'll be...
