Fredericksburg Art Gallery

Fredericksburg Art Gallery is located in the beautiful Texas Hill Country. The picturesque Main Street setting is easily accessible to the many art lovers who visit the gallery daily. Fredericksburg, Texas was named in 2004 among the “Top Five – Western Art Towns” by Southwest Art Magazine. In February 2010, Fine Art Connoisseur magazine named Fredericksburg "The Little Jewel of Art in Central Texas."

The gallery, now in its fourteenth year of operation at 314 East Main Street in Fredericksburg, is owned and operated by Jim and Donna Strickland. Jim and Donna have turned the space that was once a patio for the adjacent restaurant, into a magical and active haven for art lovers everywhere. Tourists seem to be entranced by the original works of art that line the walls and they are tickled by the heart-warming books that are popular among loving grandparents and Christian friends.

Donna celebrates 36  years in the art business. She started her first little gallery in Odessa in 1976 called Donnas’ Art Gallery & Gifts with her mom and dad, Joye and Gary Porter. Her parents owned another business at the time but then came to work at the gallery full time a few years later and changed the name to Frontier Galleries. Donna moved to the Hill Country in 1983 to open Holland Art Gallery in Kerrville and then opened the Fredericksburg gallery in 1986. In the 2010 March issue of American Art Collector magazine, Donna was honored to be interviewed for the special “Calling Coast to Coast” section. They asked eight leading gallery owners from coast to coast to tell them what’s hot in their gallery and identify the trends in their city.

The Gallery Has Two Annual Invitational Art Shows, A One-Man Show and participates in the popular First Friday Art Walk Fredericksburg!
