Cottonwood Gallery and Arts

Cottonwood Gallery and Arts, a stop on the Nebraska Passport Program, is located on the city square in Aurora, Nebraska. We stopped to get passport stamps and met one of the gallery's artists, Tori Denae. Tall ceilings, great natural light and neutral paint allow the artwork to shine in this gem of a gallery! Artists take turns working in the gallery that features local artists. Weavings, photography, pottery, stained glass and water colors fill the walls and flat spaces in the gallery. I found a matted watercolor of a windmill priced under $25 and was given the opportunity to select another art piece as a bonus with my purchase! We parked right outside the gallery and one of the locals encouraged us to explore the town square and ice cream shop. Community pride in alive and well in Aurora, Nebraska and the Cottonwood Gallery gives them one more reason to be proud!
