We just returned from a truly memorable visit to Jerry Winters's gallery in charming Arthur, Indiana, and I couldn't wait to share the experience with everyone.
From the moment we stepped into Jerry’s gallery, We were enveloped in an atmosphere that felt both vibrant and intimate. The walls were adorned with his extraordinary artwork, each piece reflecting Jerry’s unique perspective and undeniable talent. It’s evident that every brushstroke carries a story, and we found ourselves lost in the intricate details of his work especially trying to find those lovely caniches of Jerry's hidden in those scenes of his artwork.
What made our visit even more special was the opportunity to engage with Jerry himself. His energy is infectious, and he has a charisma that draws people in. He shared heartfelt stories from his celebrated life experiences. I was particularly moved by stories of his friendship with Clint Eastwood in Carmel, California. The way he spoke of Clint’s passion for film was truly inspiring, and I could see the mutual respect they share, shaped by years of camaraderie.
One of the most fascinating stories he shared was from his time on tour with the legendary Bob Hope and all the wonderful celebrities he has worked with. Jerry's ability to capture that comedic spirit through his art while also infusing it with personal experiences—left us in awe. It's clear that humor and joy are essential components of his creative process.
As we left the gallery, We felt a renewed sense of inspiration. Jerry’s zest for life, passion for art, and deep appreciation for the connections he’s made along the way are a vibrant reminder of what it means to live fully. His style, both in art and in person, is something truly extraordinary, radiating warmth and joy that is hard to describe but easy to feel.
If you ever have the chance to visit Arthur, IN, I cannot recommend Jerry Winters's gallery highly enough. It’s not just about the art—it’s about the stories, the friendships, and the uplifting energy that fills the space. I am sure you would find it as enchanting as we did.
Looking forward to catching up soon and hearing more amazing stories!
Avec tous nos remerciements, Que Dieu vous bénisse.

I absolutely love the beautiful Saron charcoal pieces I found at Jerry Winters’ Art Gallery! They take me back to a sweet time in my childhood.Jerry and his staff are not only fantastic art and specialty gift curators, they are wonderful hosts. From the warm greeting at the door to the backstories of the fabulous artists, we felt as if we were their only clients. Arthur, Illinois is blessed to have such a fine, world-class art gallery in their midst! Before we left, Jerry played the piano and sang a happy melody! When you stop in, please tell him, Melissa recommended you. ❤️

I had the joy of entering this lovely gallery yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there. I was fortunate to meet Mr Winters and we talked for a long while about our lives and his amazing life. He was so easy to talk with. I left with some great socks for my son and some amazing soaps. I look forward to my next visit.

My wife and I walked into Jerry Winters Art Gallery on 8/4/23 thinking we would be in & out after a few minutes. That all changed when we met Jerry. His talents of an artist, comedian, and performer captivated us for the next 1.5 hrs. As a special treat Jerry serenated my wife on the piano for her birthday. If you are in the area this store is definitely a highlight. And if Jerry is in the house, plan on spending some time with him as well. Thank you so much Jerry.

We stumbled across this gallery while passing through Arthur and couldn’t be more pleased that we did! Jerry himself signed some postcards for my daughter. He even gave her some advice and inspiration for her own artwork! He was so kind and funny and the women who worked there were so knowledgeable on all of the artwork on display. We will definitely make a point to stop in again when we come through Arthur!
