Blue Skies Gallery
Blue Skies Gallery opened in Hampton 17 years ago as a member's gallery to support local artists and give them a store front to display and sell their work. It started in a small upstairs space and grew into its current location. The 5000 square foot space houses over 70 local artists who contribute a variety of art including painting, pottery, jewelry, glass, wood carving, and other mixed media.
The gallery caters to young and old, with an emphasis on "something for everyone". Each artist rents a space in the gallery and displays their work for sale usually with a varied price range to appeal to all who come in. The gallery is well known for the quality and craftsmanship of the work displayed and customers enjoy the fact that they are supporting local artists with their purchase. In a mass production world, customers can rest assured they are purchasing one of a kind art pieces.
Hours: Tuesday-Wednesday 11:00am-6:00pm, Thursday 11:00am-7:00pm, Friday-Saturday 11:00am-6:00pm
Sunday open from 12:00pm-5:00pm, November 1,2008-December 31,2008

Blue Skies Gallery is my favorite place to browse for art -- to buy or just to enjoy looking. They have many artists, almost all local, and in many different media. To me this gallery is like a smorgasbord for the eyes. I'm especially partial to watercolor painting, and there are several wonderful watercolorists at Blue Skies. And the tactile aspect of pottery and fiber art adds to the visual experience of these type pieces. Lots to enjoy here! Collapse

Blue Skies is a local treasure -- art to suit anyone's taste. So much of the art is area-inspired, from unique bowls and vases made of Virginian 'salvage wood', to stunning oil bayscapes. Why buy mass- produced prints when you can support a very talented local artist? Collapse
