| Mindscape Gallery has been a Chicago north shore tradition for 31 years. Considered by many as one of the largest and finest contemporary American craft galleries in the Midwest. Mindscape is located in Evanston just a few blocks from Lake Michigan and the campus of Northwestern University, in the bustling Central Street retail district.
When the original owners, Ron and Deborah Isaacson, made the decision to retire from the gallery business, their store manager of ten years, Carole Richey, began her plan to continue the tradition. Knowing that the running of a business was going to be much more fun with a partner, she convinced her friend and a Mindscape contributing jewelry artist, James LeTerneau, to relocate from Michigan. Together, with combined experience in retail and as working artists, they reopened Mindscape Adornments at the current location on Central Street in Evanston in March 1999. The 30-year tradition at Chicago's northshore continues.
Over 225 artists from Maine to California exhibit their uniquely affordable home furnishings, art glass, expressive woods, ceramics and clothing. Jewelry selections range from whimsical to sophisticated by 55 artists. Special exhibits occur throughout the year to feature each craft category.
In a world of ordinary, we can fill your world with the extraordinary. Visit us for a wonderful adventure into the world of American crafts.
