A message from owner/Arts Administrator Rebecca Ravenshaw:

Rebecca Ravenshaw, Gallery Owner

It doesn't take long to notice the diverse history, scenic beauty, and unique topography that is the essence of Virginia. Artists have sought to capture this on canvas, musicians compose tributes to it, many times on handcrafted instruments, naturalists document it, hunters revere it, and those with a penchant for regional cuisine perpetuate 100 year old family recipes with a toast of Virginia wine and apple cider. Here at our Bedford Gallery we present the finest nature artists and artisans from around the state. We continue to assemble a sampling of Virginia's finest wines and gourmet gift foods for your enjoyment. We invite you to visit us soon at Gallery of Virginia Art and Gifts, where Virginia comes alive! Greetings!
