“Visited this local art shop while strolling Portsmouth and I'm so glad I popped in! Everything in this shop is so beautiful. Nina was behind the counter when I went in and she was so friendly. Some of the paintings caught my eye when I was in and I think I'll have to go back to get one on my next visit in. They have paintings, pottery, greeting cards, jewelry, children's books, ornaments, you name it! But in a very curated collection that is not overwhelming.”

“My family and I traveled to Portsmouth for the day and stopped in the Kennedy Gallery. It’s a beautiful shop with a wonderful array of artists’ work available. We ended up buying three pieces! The ladies were incredibly warm and welcoming and even went out of their way to gift our daughter and her friend with some canvas boards when they expressed an interest in art. If you’re visiting Portsmouth, make sure you pay a visit to the Kennedy Gallery!”

“I never get tired of going into this gallery because there are so many beautiful, interesting and creative items to see. They have sublime fine crafts of all kinds -- jewelry, original paintings, prints, furnishings, glass, pottery, sculptures, clothing, etc. There's a sepia print of the HMS Bounty done by a local artist as a tribute to the famed ship that I was particularly enticed by. Also, the Portsmouth Upstairs Gallery is above the Barrett Gallery and has original fine art with an emphasis on nautical paintings.”
