Dow Art Gallery and Picture Framing — Attraction in Saint Paul

This is a beautiful gallery that showcases many rotating Minnesota artists: whether the medium is photography, sculptures, or paintings. The owner's mission is to showcase working artists in his beautiful gallery where the artists get support to display their work to the public and where they are able to receive a living wage for their pieces. It is a true partnership between the gallery and the artists. I absolutely love this mission. Currently there is a Ukrainian artist who is one of the artists displaying their work there. Go buy some beautiful art and help artists make a living in what they love to do. There's really something for everyone at this gallery. Last but not least, they also do custom framing, which is absolutely the best! I just can't say enough good things about this place and its owner... he's an immigrant himself that moved with his family when he was a youngster and he is so incredibly humble and genuinely the nicest guy.

Pictured is the artwork I purchased, I forgot to ask if I was allowed to take pictures in the gallery before I went in. When I return, I shall ask if pictures are allowed, and if I am given the go ahead, I will post newer pictures.

My first art gallery I've ever visited. The owner was nice and respectful, and curated a diverse of art styles for the enjoyment of patrons. Not only this, but prints and greeting card versions of artwork was provided at a price patrons of lesser economic standing could afford. The art here really spoke to me, Marty Maehr's artwork was something I liked the most. Unfortunately, Maehr's work was out of my means to purchase, but I'll tell you it has the simplicity of mosaics from before the Renaissance, but had color blending that was many levels beyond simply eye popping. I recommend this establishment highly. Mr. Dow's art has set a high bar for future art...

I can’t say enough good things about Dow Art Gallery and its proprietor, Khanh. The gallery itself is filled with a huge amount of very high quality work of many different styles, and the art framing services provided there are absolutely top-notch. I brought in 4 very different pieces, and we spent a good deal of thoughtful time selecting what we thought would be the best settings for them. I just picked everything up, and couldn’t be happier with the end product. You get what you pay for at this gallery, and Khanh Tran is absolutely outstanding and a joy to work with....
