On the edge of the Pacific, where salt air drifts through the streets of Ocean Shores and seagulls dart above the tide, a quiet creative magic has been unfolding for fifteen remarkable years. This June 20–21, that spirit comes alive in celebration as the Gallery of Ocean Shores opens its doors during the Grays Harbor Open Studios Tour, for a weekend of art, inspiration, and community, celebrating its 15th Anniversary Celebration.

​

ghOST visitors stepping inside the gallery will discover far more than paintings upon walls. The Gallery of Ocean Shores is a gathering place where artists, collectors, travelers, and curious wanderers meet beneath warm light and the scent of fresh paint and sea air. Throughout the weekend, special anniversary events will fill the gallery with energy and celebration, honoring fifteen years of artistic dedication on the Washington coast.

​

One of the highlights of the weekend will be acclaimed artist Lora Malakoff, who will spend both days demonstrating her oil painting techniques. Guests will have the rare opportunity to watch a master artist transform blank canvas into luminous creation.

The anniversary weekend is part of the larger Grays Harbor Open Studios Tour, making the Gallery of Ocean Shores a perfect destination for those seeking a memorable coastal art adventure.

​

For one special weekend, the Gallery of Ocean Shores celebrates not only fifteen years of art, but fifteen years of bringing people together through creativity, imagination, and shared wonder. The doors are open. The paint is flowing. And the coast is calling.
