The three little rooms at La Mesa are packed with the work of some 70 artists. You're sure to find something here to buy, whether it's Peggy Potter's Vermont hand-painted, hardwood bowls, Duane Dahl's handmade slouched glass-and-rock bowls, or Max and Dorothy Hand's aspen stools topped with hand-painted, deerskin pillows. Mary Larson has run this gallery for 12 years, and she's got great taste in ceramics, glassware, furniture, dog bowls, light fixtures, paintings and on and on.

Allison Buchsbaum Barnett and Ivan Barnett, both artists, have meticulously transformed the former Elaine Horwich gallery. With its polished wood floors and minimal design, the open space is positively serene. The Barnetts exhibit metal assemblages, alabaster turnings, wood-carved pots, earthenware vessels and many wonderful pieces of jewelry, including Tod Pardon's work of sterling, glass ebony and semiprecious stones and Pat Garrett's hand-fabricated necklaces and earrings with rose gold and pearls.

Thirteen Moons Gallery is a rare breed: a gallery devoted entirely to contemporary art quilts. Here is an opportunity to marvel at the transformation of bits of fabric into abstract and representational paintings. Accomplished figurative textile artist Mary Anhaltzer opened the gallery in March 1999 to display work by some of the world's best quilters.
