About Columbia Art Gallery

Columbia Art Gallery features the fine art works of local Gorge artists, as well as artists from nearby regions. Enjoy a new art show each month!

Art shows are designed for a broad range of interests.  Themes range from the sublime to the outrageous.  They give you something to enjoy as well as something to think about.

Count on shows in the dead of winter to boost your spirits, and count on shows in the middle of summer to challenge your mind or appeal to your senses.

Ever mindful of the need to serve people who live in our community, we also aim to provide exceptional art experiences for our visiting guests.
