Where Art Meets the Sea
The Little Art Shop
Step into The Little Art Shop, a fresh take on the traditional art gallery—part creative collective, part gift boutique, and 100% local. Located on the scenic Benicia waterfront, our shop features an eclectic mix of original works by 30+ artists from around Benicia and the Bay Area.
Our artists are makers and risk-takers, blending tradition with innovation. You’ll find art in all forms: bold paintings, statement jewelry, sculptural ceramics, vibrant textiles, upcycled designs, mixed media, photography, woodwork, fused glass, mosaics, encaustic, and more. Every artist in our collective brings something unique to the table—and they’ve been handpicked for their quality, vision, and craft.
About the Gallery
We believe art should be accessible and personal. Whether you’re decorating a new space, picking out a memorable gift, or just browsing for inspiration, we’ve got you covered. Our collection ranges from thoughtful handmade items to stunning statement pieces—and everything in between.
But what really sets us apart is the heart behind it all. We’re a community of artists who care deeply about our work, our town, and the people who walk through our doors. We love sharing stories, talking process, and connecting through creativity.
So next time you’re in Benicia, make us a stop on your journey. Explore the waterfront, stroll through the Tannery Building, and visit a gallery that’s as warm and welcoming as it is inspiring. We’re open seven days a week, 11 AM – 5 PM.
