Shadow Mountain Gallery artists' co-op was founded in 1990 and offers its 40 member artists a platform to showcase and sell their work while gaining recognition from a broad audience of visitors to the Gallery and the Gallery website.

For its first five years, Shadow Mountain Gallery was located by the historic yellow barn in Conifer, Colorado. In July 1995, the Gallery relocated to the Adobe Creek Artists Center on Highway 74 in Kittredge, Colorado near Evergreen. Our new home as of May 1, 2004 is just two miles up the road in Downtown Evergreen at 28186 Highway 74 (Main Street) amidst fun dining and unique shopping with the creek rushing by just a stone's throw away, and some of the world's best skiing, fishing and hiking close at hand.

Shadow Mountain Gallery is owned and operated by a core group of 40 artists who create art in a variety of media: Acrylic, oil and watercolor painting, pastels, collage, photography, hand-made paper, pottery, jewelry, glass, wood-carving and bronze sculptures. Many of the gallery's artists have won awards in local art shows and calendar contests, and in state, regional and national juried art competitions and exhibitions.

Shadow Mountain Gallery has space for artists in jewelry, glass, pottery,
fiber, photography and sculpture. Being a co-op gallery means each artist is an owner and therefore involved in many aspects of the gallery. Member requirements are: $75 membership, rent is $45/month, each artist works one day/month 10:00-5:30 (may be split into 2 half-day sessions.) Training is provided. The gallery retains 35% of all sales.
