Art Galleries near Lyons, CO

“Absolutely love my tattoo. Sara was super professional and kind all the way through. I appreciated the squeeze toys she had and the little aftercare container. Definitely would get another tattoo from her.”

“A showcase of local artists.
I feel inspired by artwork and you can feel the hard work and sweat that goes into each piece, lovingly.
Highly recommended.”

“It was so nice to find this tiny gallery and shop inside an office building in historic Niwot. The art and goods are packed tightly, even around the staff's working areas. We went to a festival of the celebration of the end of summer, First Friday ArtWalks. I had seen a post in the Boulder paper announcing the event. One of the artists featured was a person we have known for over 25 years and seen his work in other settings, in Boulder. It was really nice to see the new work he has done recently, a shift in color palette and location settings but still recognizable by his style. And still depictions of the Southwest part of the country. The gallery had other artists also and craft and pieces of art for sale. A nice collection of styles. Niwot has always been known for its antique stores, even since we arrived in Boulder in the 70s. We did not furnish from these stores but some friends did. Now, many of the historic shops sell the art of the local community that has sprung up, in a rural setting, just minutes from Boulder. If you take the sign at the turn off from the Diagonal Highway (119) just east of the light at Niwot Rd, you will find yourself on the 2nd Ave historic section of town. It was also a treat that the festival evening had a large local band playing outside near the galleries on this block. A large crowd for the end of summer festivities, and awards to the artist favorites of the summer long shows. Many people seemed to all know each other. Small town, still in the heart of Boulder County.”
