Gallery


Thirty-year-old Santa Ysabel Art Gallery exhibits both traditional and contemporary fine art and fine craft from established and emerging artists. The gallery has a long-standing commitment to excellence in painting, sculpture, ceramics, glass and work in mixed media, and to the choice of artists who exhibit there. There is a special interest in regional California landscape painting and painters, both plein air and studio. An earmark of the gallery is the James Hubbell Room, which features the work of Santa Ysabel’s internationally recognized artist, poet, visionary, and builder of organic houses James Hubbell.

Surrounded by mountain views and open pastureland in the picturesque Santa Ysabel Valley, the gallery is in the historic 1930 Hellyer house on grounds that are rimmed with large trees, flower gardens, and open spaces to stroll. The gallery neighborhood is home to SOHO’s restored Santa Ysabel General Store, the well known Dudley’s Bakery, Julian Pie Bakery, and next door, the Julian Weaving Works and Academy of Handweaving.
