In the beginning…
In the 1930’s, the current Bellingham sculpture gardens and gift shop were constructed, providing both a garage and service station for motorists. Many years later the buildings were converted into a general store, famous for delicious, giant ice cream cones.
Chuckanut Bay Gallery Gift Shop opens in Bellingham…
In 1986, the Bellingham, WA gift shop was first opened with the vision to combine the work of local, hand-crafting artisans in a relaxed, peaceful setting. The sculpture garden has since grown to feature the work of over 400 artists, offering a destination shopping experience where visitors can enjoy infused and etched glassworks, beautifully glazed pottery, fine handmade jewelry, wooden crafts, and art prints. In addition, the beautiful gardens, overflowing with sculpture, water features, lanterns, hand-tuned wind chimes, and bird houses and feeders, make the perfect location to relax on the deck, watch the many songbirds and hummingbirds fluttering around the feeders while enjoying an espresso or tea amidst the creative energy of hundreds of contributing artists.
