They charge a setup fee $250 to upload three of your paintings to their online site. You have to do this to be able to show in their gallery or rent an artist studio. However, when I visited the gallery and artist studios they were cleared out. I was never told they were closing.

Best Gallery in Laguna

Once you look at the space, the sales lady Simone will make it seem like they sell a lot of art monthly, that consist traffic is coming into the gallery, That the art shows are huge, also that they will advertise for you, but that’s a lie.The people who manage this gallery are never here, never open the doors on time. The art shows are honestly just all the artist and family. No buyers, they don’t advertise your art.There is literally no “buyers” coming in. The most you’ll see is two people who walk around for 5 minutes and walk out a day, if your lucky. FYI, 99.9% of the time they aren’t looking to buy.The person who should be marketing is never here nor speaking to artist.Honestly how this place stays open is because the artist pay so much for the space. They have over 40 spaces available to rent, each spaces starts at 600+.All I’m saying is please don’t waste your money renting a space here. Simone will make it seem they will help you network, help you sell art and that this place is amazing but you won’t.This place is just a big scam.I’m a art fanatic, I believe all artist should have a space in which is viewed. I am in the gallery every day, for hours at a time.Simone seems very sweet but don’t buy it. She is lying. I feel terrible for the people who came in recently that got spaces from her. The whole time she was selling and talking, all I could point out was lie after lie she was telling the poor artist. Literally getting their hopes up for nothing.This place is extremely disorganized and just terrible.Also wish I could upload a video, but literally everyone left. This place was pretty much full. Now over 9 artist left Need proof? Check it out, on the right side. Come quickly, before they scam someone else to rent a wall.

There is some outstanding art by many up-and-coming artists in this gallery that also doubles as an art studio for several local artists. Its a perfect location across the street from the Laguna Art Museum and the famous Laguna gazebo with an incredible view.

Very friendly, and beautiful works in the gallery. Again thank you to the artist (with his yellow peinture 09/29/19) who offered us bottles of water and calmed us because we had problems with our car. Thanks again ! (From Belgium)

Artists helping other artists with encouragement and guidance by Bill and Simone! Friendly and creative artists.

Laguna Art Gallery is one of my favorite places to visit in Laguna Beach. It is a calm, relaxing environment and it is meditating looking at the art works in the gallery. The owner Shane is really knowledgeable about his clients and many people love purchasing artwork from his studio. Also, right next door they have a studio for artists and I admit it is fun interacting with them. It is cool to learn about who they are as artists and what events occurred in their life that reflect in their art pieces. If you love looking at art and discussing it, just come to the studio. You will always find a piece that you want to put in your home or office.

Such a beautifully organized gallery! I went in one morning after breakfast down in Laguna just out of curiosity. As an artist myself, I was pleasantly surprised to be able to talk to and meet some of the artists that had work in gallery. So many beautiful pieces and a wonderfully clean and simple design!

The best selection of original art that I have seen in a while. They have so many international artists its unbelievable. The art walks are amazing!

Lots of beautiful, contemporary art on display. A great place to stop by during the Laguna Art Walk to speak with artists and art admirers.

Not the gallery I was looking for ..this is not the Laguna Gallery of Contemporary Art LGOCA is has the best examples of art in Laguna Beach

I was an artist presenting in this gallery. Of all 8 galleries my work exhibits in, this gallery handles the art in the poorest manor. They damaged two of my pieces beyond repair, failed to pay me for my artwork and one of the employees took or sold another piece claiming it did not exist anymore. They are arrogant, self absorbed, and the chances of you finding a piece of artwork for your space that is not damaged in some way are genuinely, honestly, quite low. Paintings are stored against each other ( Oil to oil ) in a cramped and tiny space with a piece of red cloth being their only protection from their mindless employees who jam them into any vague spot in the closet. If you love art, do not shop here. So many other great galleries in Laguna that treat their artists with respect and courtesy. Thank you, Peter

Meh

This is not the Laguna Gallery of Contemporary Art ..Very deceptive advertisingIf they no longer are associated the gallery, why do you advertise on their search page..?

Very small and not very exciting
