McBride Gallery

Bottom Line: A large, beautiful gallery featuring a variety of artists, mediums and subjects.
For starters, I would just like to note that I am by no means any sort of art expert but I do really enjoy looking at art and particularly pieces that have meaning to me. Originally I went to McBride Gallery to pick up some Carol Dyer Christmas cards but of course I had to take the opportunity to peruse the entire diverse collection at McBride Gallery. Even if you are not an art enthusiast, I think you will find that there are many interesting works of art in here.
Some of the items that particularly caught my eye were a large Carol Dyer (oil or acrylic?) painting of Annapolis and a (bronze?) statue of Maryland crabs. Unfortunately, I do not have thousands of dollars in my budget for art but I do appreciate the craft and recognize there are more affordable ways to add some cool pieces to my collection. On this particular occasion I was on a mission for local Christmas cards but I would definitely return to ask if there were prints available of some of the originals I really liked. Note, I that I did see some prints but I suspect others may be available.
Given that McBride Gallery’s collection includes the work of many artists (at least 50, I think), you will find a variety of mediums here. For instance, I also saw some beautiful watercolors and eye-​catching photographs. If Annapolitan inspired art is not you thing, please do not rule out McBride gallery as I saw many cool pieces of places out West, famous landmarks in Europe and quaint dairy farms. Something else I really like about McBride Gallery is that they take pride in their store and treat their customers as guests. Overall, this is a great store on Main Street.
