OOAK ART GALLERY

CELEBRATES TEN YEARS

​

April marks the 10th anniversary of the

opening of One Of A Kind Art Gallery

(OOAK) in Micaville.  Representing the

work of more than 150 local and regional

artists, the gallery is warm and inviting

while providing an opportunity for local craftspeople to showcase for their work.

​

“We’ve got such a wealth of talented artists within a 30-mile radius,” said Kari Weaver, owner of OOAK. “I feel like part of what the gallery does is spread wealth into the art community.”

​

Artists like Debbie Littledeer, well recognized for her touching and whimsical nature-inspired silkscreened prints, appreciate Weaver’s efforts on their behalf. “It makes me smile to walk into the gallery and see my work in the midst of work by so many other talented crafters,” Littledeer says. “I feel wonder and delight when I step in the door.”

​

Wonder and delight are key to the gallery’s success. The building itself, originally opened as the Micaville Country Store in 1922, and still boasts its original hardwood floors and windows as well as great character and a warm, inviting allure.  Then there’s the feel-good vibe created by the kaleidoscopic array of artwork that lines virtually every nook and cranny. From functional pottery to funky folk art, there’s something for every taste and budget.
