“I went to the Monterey History and Art Museum for a concert, and it was such a cool experience. The building itself has so much character and history, which made the atmosphere feel unique and special. The concert setup inside felt intimate, like you’re part of something really local and authentic. I also enjoyed looking around at the art and exhibits before the music started — it gave the night a cultural vibe. The acoustics were surprisingly good for a museum space, and the sound carried beautifully. The staff was welcoming and helpful, which added to the positive energy. It’s the kind of place where history, art, and live music blend together perfectly. Definitely a memorable experience in Monterey.”

“Such a great store. The people were so friendly. We bought many gifts to bring back home to our family and friends. Will be back for sure next time we are in the area. They even gave us a nice keychain charm for protection in our travels that I still keep on my bag. Love the vibes here.”

“WOW! Amazing lanterns and so many eye-catching items in this store. Yes, it is very expensive, but we are sure their rent is high also. Definitely a lot of "eye-candy" in here! Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area!”

“I love bringing home artwork from travels- makes a much nicer souvenir than a piece of theme merchandise. I knew the area was known for galleries and was very hopeful. So thankful to have found Cheryl's place, because even though there were lots of pieces in Carmel I liked, they were at MUCH higher price point. Bringing home a lovely landscape, can't wait to display it.”

From watercolor, acrylic, and oil paintings to printmaking, jewelry, woodwork, and glass art, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. One of the unique aspects of Venture Gallery is that there’s always an artist on duty, making every visit a personal and engaging experience. The exhibits change every two months, ensuring there’s always something new to discover. Conveniently located next to the Portola Plaza Hotel & Spa, it’s the perfect stop on the way to the Wharf, Custom House Plaza, or the Conference Center. A true gem in the heart of Monterey!”
