Our Approach

Our Approach

Personal

River Light Gallery is a group of people who create exhibiting their works for sale in a physical "brick and mortar" space together.  There are no employees.  Artist volunteers "work" one or more days per month at the Gallery.  When you visit the Gallery, you are greeted by an artist or two.  You may meet Gwen Waight, Lois Tullis, Mike Peterson, Gabriele Bryant, Tamara Gunnels Kindle, Lisa Kane, Chanah Spencer, or Diane Seskes.  We invite you to talk with us, ask questions about the art represented at the Gallery, and get to know us.  We represent people who create, and we welcome people who visit.  

Experiential

River Light Gallery is an experience.  The physical space and the art within River Light Gallery create an uplifting, “put a smile on your face” atmosphere.  The up close look at an assemblage or a painting or a jewelry piece is encouraged.  We invite you to take the time to study a piece to look into the creative mind of the artist.  The experience of actually touching or smelling an object is what we value.  Because of that, we do not have online sales.  We pride ourselves in offering "face-to-face" sales.

Volunteer Artists

Volunteer artists keep the doors of River Light Gallery open. Currently there are seven artists that you may meet on any given day--Gabriele Bryant, Tamara Gunnels Kindle, Sue Berry, Silvia Dolson, and Sue Kilcoyne plus Lois Tullis and Carol Comer who are at the Gallery more than once a month. The volunteers change depending upon the time of year and other commitments. Without these volunteers we could not remain open.
