This gallery is different every time I visit (and I visit frequently) It’s bold and built on supporting artists within the community. Art reasonably priced as well and the owner is a hoot. A must-visit if you’re in Salem!

Wonderful new art gallery in downtown Salem! Melanie Weston (the owner) provided just the right amount of information on the artwork, and time for you to internalize the pieces of interest to you. There is a fresh feeling to the gallery, and I look forward to to seeing all that Salem on the Edge adds to the areas art community.While there are many excellent pieces of art to select from, my favorite is Sylvina Days “Emerald Pool (Santiam River #4)” Oil painting. The vivid layers of details transported me to the river as I was able to peer through the life like depth of the water Day has painted. While I was unfamiliar with this artist before visiting Salem on the Edge, I will certainly be looking forward to seeing more from this artist in the future. Although this was my personal favorite, there were many selections from a variety of artists that I would be proud to display in my home or office. Features that make visiting Salem on the Edge include:Wide variety of art to choose from, knowledge staff, handicapped accessible, and surprisingly good values for the quality of art on display.
