“Excellent resource for young artists to hone their craft and experiment with new mediums. The staff is warm, positive, and encouraging, always offering their unique artistic expertise. But also allowing each artist the space to try new things without expectation. Best way for young artists to dip their toes in the local art scene. Highly recommend!”

“The facility lacks charm but the exhibits were pretty good. In particular, the Animaldom cartoons by Jo Mora were lovely, funny and well-displayed. The best of show were the three Mora drawings from his time among the Hopi. A special treat were the watercolors of historical sites in Monterey by Zella Conan. Bad news: the museum has no printed material about the artists available in the lobby.”

“It's a little hidden....But once you find it, you won't be disappointed. Love, love, love the colors and vibrancy. The shop is on the smaller side but don't let that fool you, they did a wonderful job of displaying everything. It felt magical, with the hummingbird alebrijes hung with clear strings. They made good use of the space. I love any stores that sell art from Mexican culture, it makes my heart sing. Prices are reasonable and staff that was there today at the store was friendly and helpful. I hope that this store thrives!”

“Love the designers they carry. The staff are knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful without the sales pressure. Not only that, it's close to the Aquarium (if you haven't been GO!) Don't forget to get the wallet sized card about the fish & seafood to avoid to preserve different species and definitely dine at the Intercontinental Hotel. It's a lovely place to stay if you're making your Monterey visit an overnight affair!!”

“Wonderful and Inspiring Collection, I walked in and was greeted by Artist Nancy Olaeta who Has her Works and Creations on display, Oil paintings of the Local Monterey Peninsula and Big Sur California Coastline, along with her gorgeous and colorful Glass work. As I walked around the Gallery, Nancy Introduced me to the Venture Gallery Collection, sharing a little peek into the different Artists. Venture Gallery is Tucked away in such a quiet corner of the Plaza, a treasure box of Local Creativity. I encourage you to pop in and see the forever-changing Display of such a Talented Monterey Peninsula Artist.”

“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!”

“This shop was one of the few places that really attracted my attention when it came to interesting merchandise. I just love browsing a store that has a lot of variety with an international flare. A variety of eye catching clothing in lovely styles and colors. Spending time to explore is a must! You'll find singing bowls, drums, jewelry, cultural nick knacks, decorative items for the home, wind chimes, statuary, art work, rocks & crystals. The whole shop is filled with items from top to bottom. I would have loved to make several purchases, but the only downside for me, was that everything was too pricey! I'm a tourist on a budget, and I know that I can get many of these items much cheaper back home!”

“Awesome selection of original art pieces and furniture from Mexico. The owner Carlos is extremely friendly, and took the time to detail where each piece originated, as well as provided a back story on the artist that made the piece. I felt very welcomed into the store and had a fun time browsing. We bought a few pieces for our kitchen and dining room and we will definitely be back for more.”

“Greg and Julie are absolutely lovely! Kind, and focused on superb customer service. I had a large piece that nobody would frame. I tried 21 shops between San Jose & Monterey. I called as a first time customer and explained to Greg. He said "bring it in and I'll figure it out." The piece is stunning! I will never go anywhere else. True old school customer attention.”
