The OG of the ATX Art Scene (45 years!) hosting a fantastic roster of Austin artists. First floor is the current exhibition, while the 2nd floor gallery show the entire catalog. Make sure to stop by for openings to meet the artist and connect with fellow art lovers.

This is the best contemporary gallery I've found in Austin. Their art shows the hand of the artist more than other galleries, and this gallery has a broad stable exploring many techniques. In addition to seeing their current big exhibit, it's always enjoyable to go upstairs and into the storage room to see work from their past exhibits.

One of the better original art galleries in Austin. We enjoyed the current exhibit on display. I will be curious to see their future exhibits.

This gallery is one of the best in town. No small feat in an art-loving city like Austin, the gallery is built into an old house and offers cozy vignettes featuring small numbers of works in each room. Intimate and welcoming as well as home to some of the best artists Austin has to offer.

Last Friday evening marked my first visit to Wally Workman for an opening reception; and I can see exactly why this established gallery has been providing art to the Austin area for so many years. The staff is welcoming, the space is airy and uncomplicated and contains a diverse selection of art. There are enough seats in each viewing room to sit back, relax and take it all in. I go to many art opening receptions; and Workman seems to pride themselves on providing their patrons with an exceptional art experience.
