Hugging the road on the way to West Quoddy Head Light, this gallery in an old clapboard building is well worth a stop, showcasing works by top-tier artists from the farthest reaches of Down East. Hand-carved pottery, paintings, jewelry, and prints are among the offerings. Don't miss the views of the saltwater marsh out back.
Works by some 20 artists who live or summer in the region, including nearby in Canada, are sold in this spacious high-ceilinged fine arts gallery in the former J.J. Newberry Co. Pieces include the husband-and-wife owners’ acrylic paintings (hers) and limited-edition photographic prints (his), as well as pottery, sculpture, and the not-to-miss driftwood sea creatures. The gallery also has three vacation rentals, including two lofts.
