What a terrific 2025 summer The Turtle Gallery has had so far! Our second show of the season, "Trees 2.0" is currently on display, showcasing masterful paintings and prints, fiber art, wood assemblages, jewelry, ceramic, and sculpture. It is beyond exciting and an honor to be working with artists from past seasons while introducing brand new faces.

This season, we continue to support Project Launch, providing support to local students and families through opportunities to identify post-graduate career and life interests, opening every possible door.

We are open Wednesday - Sunday, 11 AM - 5 PM. Come say hello! Our next open house and new showcase will be Friday, August 22 from 2 - 5 PM.

Find us at 61 N. Deer Isle Rd, Deer Isle, ME

Happy July,
Team Turtle 🐢

Gene Koch’s free range metal sculptures echo the organic forms found within the natural ecosystems of our island and beyond. Gene creates these forms to be installed and brought to outdoor places, and also have prints of his installation photos available for purchase! Stop by or reach out to inquire about more of his work, and enjoy our other sculptors whose work dwells both inside and outside at The Turtle Gallery.

Margaret Rizzio creates multi-layered mixed media artwork at various scales, and we’re pleased to have a collection of her collage matchbox sets this year! Uniquely one of a kind, these are the perfect gift for a friend, or special item for yourself to enjoy. Which one is your favorite?! ❤️

Rizzio writes that “These tiny worlds are meant to make sense of the chaos of life and to generate a feeling of organization engaging the viewer to reflect on the fleeting and random quality of life.”
