about us
4 Ravens Gallery is a collaborative effort by local, professional artists, exploring the innovative use of materials and expressing with quality craftsmanship. We opened in 2012 in the center of Missoula, on the corner of Higgins and Broadway, and doubled our space in 2017 to include two additional showrooms. And in 2020 we moved down the block to the sweet space that used to be the home for the Rocky Mountain School of Photography. The content of the gallery is constantly changing, so please come by and see us!
Pictures from the new location coming soon....
We are grateful to represent over 75 artisans whose work reflects our own sense of innovation and quality.
Here is sampling of the work available in our Missoula location, but not all the work is available to purchase online. Please call us if you would like some personal shopping assistance.
“There is an inherent
pleasure in making.
We might call this
“joie de faire”
(like joie de vivre)
to indicate that there is
something important,
even urgent,
to be said about
the sheer enjoyment
of making something
exist that didn’t exist before,
of using one’s own
agency, dexterity, feelings
and judgment
to mold, form, touch, hold
and craft physical materials,
apart from anticipating
the fact of its
eventual beauty,
uniqueness
or usefulness.”
