Brenda McMahon Gallery is proud to represent 13 area artists, including painters, glass blowers, jewelers and more. Our gallery is a celebration of the arts being created right here in Gulfport and beyond our city borders. We plan to enthrall and excite you with a diversity of work and mediums. The Gallery is open 6 days a week and open late during our twice monthly art walk and maker's market evenings.
We are proud to offer all of our artworks for view and purchase ONLINE. This is a great opportunity to shop at all hours. For those who don't want to venture too far from home, you can still support our local artists, where ever you are.
Join us for A Taste of Art: An Intimate Creative Experience in a Studio/Gallery setting.
Professional artists, Brenda McMahon, Diane Bragg and Jila Davoodi share their skills and techniques as they teach monthly three-hour art sessions. These sessions are designed for those who have NO ART EXPERIENCE, but share a love of craft. A Taste of Art provides a guided ART NIBBLE, for the curious, the connoisseur and the collector.
Three Wednesday’s a month, Brenda, Diane and Jila transform the Gallery into a safe and healthy art studio so they can share their mastery with you. All this, while enjoying GOURMET BITES AND ADULT BEVERAGES! Best of all, you go home with a greater appreciation for the work and a piece made with your own hands. You'll find our ART NIBBLE is simply delicious!
