What a great gallery/shop tucked away near the University of Akron in whimsically decorated houses! Ive lived in the Akron area for most of my life and cant believe Ive never made it here before. Its a great place to browse and/or find a unique gift! I cant wait to take our out of town visitors to see it once the pandemic is over so we can browse in a more relaxed fashion.

This is a great local Akron art studio. It is a bit expensive, but when you want unique artwork, that is what you should expect. They do have small pieces that are not that expensive. They also offer free gift wrapping, which is a plus. The sales associates are all very friendly and helpful. This is a great place to purchase a nice unique item.

I’ve been coming here since I was young. Beautiful creative and timeless pieces that make great gifts for loved ones. (The newlyweds love their candle stick holder)

This is a wonderful place to browse in a gallery setting. Drumm’s work is prolific and world-renowned. There is so much to take in visually it is astonishing. This is a wonderful place to shop for any occasion because the artwork is often purposeful ( they have candelabras, menorahs, kitchen ware that is as useful as it is collectible, key chains, key holders, decorative wall art that is museum quality of every size and shape imaginable). Each room is a treasure trove for the senses and delights people of every age and background. The staff is always helpful and knowledgeable. Allow lots of time to browse every nook and cranny of each room it’s so worth your time.

Amazing gallery! So glad theyre open. They are taking precautions to insure you have a healthy visit. I could literally spend all day there and not see everything. I never leave empty handed either!

What a great place. I got some art work from his shop will be back to get more art work

Their artwork is indeed unique. If you are gifted with a piece and its not your thing, you are greeted with a curt go sell it on ebay. Not exactly what I would expect from a reputable dealer in fine art. Ebay prices would indicate that their art does NOT have anywhere near the street value that they sell for. By all means look here, but then go buy what you want on ebay.

Staff is incredible. Super friendly. They have a lot of very interesting wall hanging pieces as well as table top art. Fine selection of jewelry as well.

Art studio of local metal foundry artist and sculpter Don Drumm. Includes art from many other artists as well. Lots of decorative and practical items for sale. Just a great store!

Amazing artists and lots of price points to choose from. Well worth the trip.

Everyone in Akron knows Don Drumm and his lifetime of creating amazing art! I encourage all beyond the region to explore his amazing body of work and visit his studio!Youll be amazed. Original works range from small ornamental pieces to enormous wall hanging stylized depictions of a kind Sun shining on your home.

Wow, what a special place! Having not been to Akron in 20 yrs, I was not aware that EVERYONE knows of this gem. If you have a couple spare hours go there, your head will spin looking and admiring each and every corner of the complex.

Beautiful pieces by Don as well as his family and tons of other artists and jewelers but keep an eye out because a number of the original Don Drumm pieces arent signed.

Wonderful experience! Great art exhibits

The quality of his work and style I lost of his pics and love them

Beautiful artwork for indoor and outdoor. Also showcases other artists and Craftsman items including one of a kind jewelry. So much selection from affordable items under$100 to very expensive one of a kind signature pieces. Close to the university of Akron.

Beautiful and amazing gallery with a wide range of handmade art. The price range is great for anyone on a budget to spending more on a one of a kind art piece. Definitely wish I had more time to look around! Also, the staff was so very helpful and did a gorgeous job of gift wrapping an item for my mother for Mothers Day. Will definitely be visiting again!

Don Drumm is a staple to the Akron area. His work is amazing! The shops are full to the top with beautiful, creative from Don and a hundred or so other talented artists. Some things are expensive but a treasure to pass on in Familys. Go check it out!

This is such an awesome place to find a unique gift. It has become my go to place for wedding gifts and special occasion gifts.And I love that we are supporting our local artists.

Expensive decorations, but only because beautiful and high quality.

Everyone was super helpful and the wrapping for all your items are great! I always love to buy local and super local artists because my family has always made their own products also! Come here for classes too and fun times with friends!!

Beautiful selection of everything!

Quaint, eclectic art gallery situated close to the University of Akron. Drumm is a local institution, working primarily in cast aluminum. The gallery showcases Drumms work, but includes an extensive selection of other artists as well.

Beautiful art. Very quirky and unique. This place does not disappoint. Owners are very kind people as well.

Cant believe Ive never been here until now! It is like a museum of beauty. So many things made by different artists from around the country . Everywhere you look is something eye-catching.

Lot of unique items by a diverse group of artists packed in a small place. The staff is friendly and helpful. The prices are on the high side. Creative gift wrapping.If you are a local or a visitor wanting to see a local artist, this is the place to come and visit.

Unique creations from Don and other artists . Plenty of different media to choose from in all price ranges. Guaranteed to please and be one of a kind for yourself or someone else .

This studio is a great place to shop. Local artist, huge selection, unique items. Perfect for gifts and they are always appreciated. Sometimes can be a bit crowded. So much to see, recommend you take your time going thru this shop.

Don Drumm Studio is the rhythmic beat of Akron. This art gallery supports local and national artists’. You will find that specialgift for any occasion at this neighborhood location. #supportlocal #buyart

If you havent been to Don Drumm you should go! I have been coming here for years! I get my daughters a Don Drumm gift every Christmas. They always look for the beautiful wrapping under the tree.

Awesome. My daughter loved it

Very EXPENSIVE some nice stuff. One visit was enough for me

Very cool place to go. Different from many local shops. A bit pricey but everything is hand made.

It was very busy, but also bery personal and helpful. Each gift i purchased was wrapped beautiful i will go back after the holidays

If you ever need a housewarming or wedding gift, this is the perfect place. Don Drumm is a local legend known for his unique style of metal art. Youll understand why once you visit.There are actually two stores: One that primarily sells Drumms own work and a select few other artists, and a gift shop that sells assorted types of items. There are also items on display outdoors in the patio area between the buildings. If youre in the area, its well worth the trip.

Even though I didnt find anything that spoke to me on our recent visit, I did find some great xmas gifts for the lady. And, as last year, called with a case number and item...paid and had it shipped to me! Thanks for the help as always and maybe one day Ill find MY special Drumm item :)

Great place to buy beautiful and unique gifts. people working here are very friendly and helpful

Love this place.

Great stuff to buy, something for everyone. Its fun to go see whats new. Lots of outdoor things for your garden and always lots of sound for the indoors. One of my favorite places to visit.

Amazing maze of creative, artsy gifts. Hard to find the first time but worth the effort for things you wont find anywhere else

We stopped in on Dons Birthday and of course he was working! He’s always working to bring us all the most amazing unique pieces in the world! Happy Birthday Don and hope you got to celebrate at some point!

Wow.....just WOW!!! DON DRUMM STUDIOS. Dont put it off, just GO! I was VERY impressed with all in their very large and very cool shop!!! Ill 100 % go next time Im in the Akron area!!!

I didnt have long to pursue the gallery, but the sheer number of works was surprising. The place is huge. The pieces that I did get a chance to look at were great.

What an amazing gallery. Don is a legend and a great guy. Shop local and buy art!!!

Beautiful art work, and lots of variety. Found great gifts.

Very cool

My absolute favorite place to shop in the entire world! Can always find something!

There is a lot of really cool stuff there. There is something for just about any budget. Its Kool just to walk through and see everything. In plan on going back every now and again to see new art. The different drummer next door is really awesome too. I highly recommend checking it out.

The whole space is absolutely beautiful. There are so many beautiful pieces of not only his art but are from other individual. I could spend the whole day looking at everything that there is to buy. There are also pieces for just about every price range.

Loved the gallery, beautiful unique pieces in all price ranges.

I brag about this place to all my out of town friends. We have something unique here in Akron. Truly you can find something for anyone here. Just so many beautiful finds here. My favorite shopping experience.

Love everything about Dons style. One of a kind!

So many pretty and unique things!

Been going to Don Drumm Studios for many years. Beautiful and unique gifts for all occasions. They will take the same time and care to gift wrap your package whether it was $5 or $500. Very high quality. A definite must see!

I live in Cincinnati, but every few months when I’m in Akron, I love visiting the studio! Such amazing pieces and gifts!

Tons of art at all price points. Metalwork, ceramics stained glass, and jewelry.

One of a kind Akron artist. Specializing in metal casting.

Awesome Practical Art work great selection

This is one of the highlights of my trips to Akron. Cant get enough time in this beautiful studio. All pieces are unique, inspiring and there is something for everyone. Staff is so service oriented and knowledgeable. A wonderful place for gifts too!

I love this place! Great place for gifts and make sure you gift yourself too!

Always a variety of arts, sculptures, and crafts. Different Drummer had fashion accessories, Akron memorabilia, unique knick-knacks. Always something new to see. Guest artist days always bring something fresh. Definitely for those who love the eclectic.

My first time there yesterday wasnt sure what to expect. My fiance loves the place...and now so do I! Very cool, unique, bizarre art...LOVE IT!! :) And then? One day later I called and ordered something else, great customer service and awesome place to look around.

Amazing local artist and fun little shop to visit

I bought tiney wolves. I love them.

Beautiful art pieces! Such intricate workmanship, reasonable prices for handmade art.

Best place to visit for high quality, unusual and masterful gifts. Staff is friendly and helpful. Offer complimentary gift wrap that is beautifully executed. Always a holiday tradition...or anytime for one of a kind gifts.

Always a joy to go there. So many creative pieces.

Creative pieces for gifts, and for homes! I always feel welcomed here and I somehow always leave with something!

An Akron treasure, Mr Drumm owns most of the block and has dedicated it to his unique art and that of other artists, local and otherwise. The main building is crammed with various art pieces, plus theres another gallery/gift shop and a church turned glass blowing studio caddy corner. A lot to see and art ranging from $5 to $4000.+

I love this place!! A great place for unique pieces of art. If u are in need of a special gift or piece of art for your home this place has so much to offer.

Great place. Interesting art pieces.

Gorgeous original art. Stainless steel pieces for your home that are just breathtaking. Their offering of earrings is unparalleled—youll find things at many price points. This is the perfect place to find special gifts, or something nice for your collection. The outdoor area is so lovely just to sit and be for a while.

Wonderful items in a wide range of price points!

Great place for interesting art work of all types. Especially Like the new Adirondack chairs with Drumm castings imbedded. I made them. You will like them too.

Most unique items. The gift wrapping is also a signature feature and a must!

I have been around the works of Don Drumm literally all my life growing up in Akron. This week I finally purchased my first peice of DD artwork for my study and I am so excited. Large sunburst, to light covers, bowls, decorative plates and stands for my home. Truly a fan, and the staff was wonderful and accomodating. Ill certainly be back for more treasures of Akron and DD.

The studio and gallery is amazing so many pieces of art you hardly know where to look first. The yard art is absolutely beyond words to describe these artists truly have an eye for creative. We only get back to Akron every few years, but this year it was at the top of my list of places to visit. I did purchase a few items made by Leona Bowser, sun catchers are her specialty among other items like jewelry.

I truly love the work of Don Drum. And they really know how to dress a window!

Unique art and great gifts for creative people!

Artful collection of unusual gifts and decor. Visually intoxicating! Be prepared to spend some time!

Wonderful art objects to eye and buy

Beautiful crafmanship. Great place to get gifts.

Don and his art have been inOur lives for over 40 yrs. and he has attracted many other artists to show and sell their works.Great folks behind the counter! Plenty of parking. Lovely and fun!!

So many cool things!!

Wife loves it so i need to love it. she loves the 1 off art and loves to spend $. great place for 1 off gifts i will say that

Lots of unique items.

Such a nice hidden gem in Acton. Loved everything in the studio. Parking in front can get full pretty quickly since theres only a few spots but there is street parking available too.

This was my first visit and, WOW!! So much to see and experience. The art work available for sale, is so beautiful and diverse. There is a little secret garden with many whimsical art pieces for your own garden. You may even get a chance to meet Don Drumm.You must visit Don Drumm Studio in Middlebury, one of the oldest neighborhoods in Akron.

A wonderful place for gifts of art for you or your family!!!

Find unique gifts for anyone.

Got to experience this lovely place with a beautiful person, Aimee Renee Lockhart.

Fabulous art work, jewelry and sculptures. Love going to this place for family presents which cant be found anywhere else.

This is a great local artist. His style isnt really for me, but he definitely has a ton of neat work. There is also other artwork mixed into part of the gift shop. The only thing I would change is the setup of the shop - its almost divided into two former houses, and its a little confusing on where to go. However, I like that they are using existing structures in Akron.

A spectacular place with an extended range of other artists displaying their work.

Gorgeous handmade jewelry, pottery, metal work!

Amazing place to get unique gifts and a little something for yourself!

Another place you need to know about as it is off the beaten track. Amazing stuff. Bring money.

I love the art, the store and the whole ambiance of the place.

Unique, wonderful art that is moderately affordable! One of my favorite stops in Akron, Ohio.

The gallery is stunning and a fantastic place to find unique gifts. The only reason I put 4 stars is because it can be very difficult to find parking if the store is busy. The gallery itself is also very tiny, which is hard to navigate if there are lots of people there.
