gallery history
|
Ashton Gallery is an integral part of the bustling, 8000 square foot art center, Art on 30th, that's located in the trending Arts & Culture District of North Park.
It was started by artist/teacher/mentor, Kate Ashton, who has been an active part of the San Diego arts community since 2001. |
A HYBRID ART GALLERY
|
We are a hybrid gallery. We represent professional, local artists who specialize in contemporary art. Also, each month the gallery hosts a juried show that offers exhibition opportunities that support San Diego artists and the vibrant art scene in San Diego.
We represent our professional artists throughout the year in one of our dedicated galleries and also in the lobby. |
|
a place for serious art
|
Each of the artists we represent is part of an artist mentorship program that ensures continued growth. This program provides artists an expansion oriented community that offers both support and invaluable critique.
Ashton Gallery strongly believes in the power of the arts community to continually challenge artists to excel. The Gallery specializes in art that people want to live with. “The artists I represent,” says Ashton, "are painting the kind of artwork people want to hang in their homes. Artwork that becomes a family legacy to be passed on through generations.” |
Always original
|
All artwork by represented artists is original. “There are many, large marketplaces that sell prints and giclées” says Ashton, "but we do not.”
Artwork at Ashton Gallery is one-of-a-kind and signed by the artist—never mass reproduced. Each piece is accompanied with a certificate of authenticity. |

find your perfect piece
|
“Buying art is like falling in love,” says Ashton. “There's a chemistry between the art and the buyer that is just palpable.”
To insure that each buyer is 100% satisfied, we offer a 5-Day In-Home Art Loan. If for any reason the artwork does not work out, the buyer can simply return the piece with no questions asked. |
