Garry Oak Gallery — Attraction in Oak Harbor

The Garry Oak Gallery on Pioneer in downtown Oak Harbor is one of my favorite art galleries and I visit it frequently! I have purchased items made from real garry oak trees, greeting cards with prints from local artists photographs and paintings, and several photographs on canvas and metal for my home. All of the artists that I have met at the store are very nice and I've enjoyed visiting with them every time I'm at the gallery. We are very lucky to have both very talented artists here locally as well as such a beautiful gallery to showcase their artwork. Over the years of my vacationing and/or living in various places I always enjoy checking out local art galleries and I can honestly say that the Garry Oak Gallery ranks up at #1 on my list. It's a must see if you are...

The gallery is a friendly, welcoming, member-run, beautiful gallery which is arranged to enhance the viewing of all the artwork. All media is represented by the local member artists and their guest artists. It is easily accessible with plenty of parking on the street as well as handicap parking directly in front of the gallery and a large parking lot in the rear of the building where the gallery is located. The artwork is beautiful, unique and created here on the island by its gallery members. Its a great place to shop for that 'special' gift. It's also nice that there are several restaurants nearby where you can enjoy a delicious meal...

There are at least 3 local galleries I enjoy visiting every few months: Garry Oak Gallery on Pioneer in Oak Harbor, Penn Cove Gallery in Coupeville and Scott Milo Gallery in Anacortes.

They are wonderful sources of diverse-medium local art and provide shopping opportunities for economical gifts representing life on Whidbey Island.

Garry Oak Gallery offers a varied selection of pottery, blown glass, paintings, jewelry and wood working. The displays are well lit with plenty of space to offer perspective.

The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. Absolutely no pressure.

Combine it with lunch at one of the nearby restaurants and you...
