“A fantastic experience with wonderful people. Helped me with great advice on all steps of the process, and now my artwork is beautifully presented. Can’t recommend them highly enough (would give 10 stars if I could)!”
“I needed to have a painting remounted because it wasn't done properly the first time by a different business. Jaynelle and Dogtown Gallery & Frame Shop not only fixed the problem, the painting looks even better in its frame with the new mounting. For future framing needs, I will certainly be returning to Dogtown Gallery! Thank you so much.”
“Got a spontaneous matching tattoo with my cousin and we chose this location because of the amazing reviews - and they deserve every positive review they got! Everyone I spoke to was incredibly friendly. Our tattoo artist, Phil, was incredibly kind and made my cousins first tattoo a lot less scary. He provided excellent care instructions and honestly made the tattoo look better than the picture we showed him. Thank you!”

9650 Clayton Rd, St. Louis“Large and impressive collection of high quality works of art with wide range of time periods. A young member of this family run business was very gracious and knowledgeable during my visit.”
10AM - 10PM
5127 Delmar Blvd, St. Louis“I had an incredible experience at this makers space! From the moment I approached Vince with my design idea, they were all in, providing invaluable expertise and creative insights that truly elevated my project. But what really set them apart was their willingness to go above and beyond. Not only did they assist me in selecting the perfect materials, but they also picked up materials for me (after noting the vendor had given me one wrong size), ensuring I had everything I needed to bring my vision to life. Their commitment to supporting creators and innovators is evident in everything they do. A huge thank you to the entire team for their outstanding service and support. Highly recommended for anyone looking to bring their creative ideas to life!”
“This gallery is a showcase for regional artistic talent allowing everyone in the community a unique chance to display their work. I have attended two openings and a special event, which were very well attended pre-covid. Last week I stopped in for an expresso and found the gallery just re-opened. This is a diamond in the rough in downtown St. Louis and only blocks from the arch complex. With juried exhibits routinely changing you have every reason to visit and admire local talent throughout the year. And the coffee bar is amazing!”
12:00 PM - 5:00 PM
501 N Grand Blvd, St. Louis“A great art center in a great location. Tons of cool events and a great facility in general. I can't recommend this place enough. The speaker setup in one of the main rooms is top-notch.”
“Such a great little local shop that supports local artists! The staff also goes above and beyond saving my email address for an artist I liked and sending me a note when they had more of her work in stock so I could get a necklace to match my favorite earrings. Cannot say enough positive things about Union Studio!”
“It is a very interesting museum. I truly enjoyed the two current exhibits (Feb 2024) and learned a lot about chess and its history in St. Louis.The third floor has interactive intros of the current grand masters. Unfortunately, the system encountered technical difficulties when I visited on 2/25/2024, but I looked up the life stories of some grand masters on Google after the visit. It was a good introduction, and I appreciated the information.Recommend 30-45 minutes to visit.”
“Our October wedding held it's reception at the beautiful indoor/outdoor space at Mad Art. We had 140 guests in attendance and the space more than accommodated dining and dancing. Kelsey and Ron are awesome! They provided a personal, curated service from our first visit to view the space to our incredible tasting to some last minute decorating hours before the reception. This old jail has rustic and modern character, great art displays, and a staff that provides a royal treatment. Definitely consider Mad Art as an elite venue for your event hosting needs!”
“Really great community arts studio with a wide range of classes in almost every medium. Great teachers and price point. Be aware that the website makes it very hard to find drawing classes, but they are offered. Can’t recommend the ceramics classes enough.”
“As someone who loves history the Samuel Coupples house did not disappoint. Before going in I didn’t expect much, just a cool looking house. Stepping in made me feel like I was walking through time, the echos of the people who lived there in the past stuck in the ears of time. There are a few places which made me want to research them more and the Cupples house was one of them. I learned about the niche side of St.Louis’s history from visiting this site. The tickets are free and you can explore the house and immerse yourself. This was an unexpected hidden gem”
“I've known about CAM for years, but I didn't realize this was just around the corner and also free. I took my parents while they were in town, and we were really impressed! While we were there, they had an... ambient? Noise? Concert in the large sunken gallery, which was really perfect and atmospheric. Definitely not what I'd normally listen to, but it matched the space. I liked that they have a coat room by the restrooms, and they have some postcards set out that they will mail for you (I only know a couple of addresses off the top of my head, so bring your address book if you want to take advantage).”
“What an exceptional place for any small gathering. The art is amazing and the vibe is special. It’s very eclectic and cozy here. I took a few photos of some of the art but you must see it in person.”
“Upstairs is surprisingly nice. Lots of open air, made for a great wedding venue. The owner having a miscommunication with his staff and subsequently making the bride cry was not the best. Minus one star for poor customer relations”
“We had Schwaig Art Glass Works create two glass panels under skylights even with the ceilings. The daylight pours through the clear textures and bevels that were used. We highly recommend this company and John was great to work with. If you're looking for quality at a fair price, this is your man.”
