Ebb Tide Art Gallery Earns "Best Art Gallery" Award
Ebb Tide Art Gallery has been voted Best Art Gallery 2026 by readers of South Sound magazine.
"For more than 40 years, the Ebb Tide Gallery has been hosting local artists from the greater Gig Harbor area. Here, visitors will find high quality art of all kinds: paintings, photographic art, wood sculptures, ceramics, glass, and more. The gallery follows a co-op model with the artists whose art is featured in the gallery also running operations. Stepping into the space, visitors will be welcomed and helped by the artists themselves. "

EBB TIDE's FEATURED ARTIST FOR September!
Pat Askren - Watercolors
Pat has been drawing since she was a small child. Her grandfather, a Norwegian fisherman, lived in Gig Harbor and often would ask her what she'd like him to draw.
He would then sketch small birds, animals, and fish on small bits of paper with a tiny stub of a pencil. It was only recently that she realized that those small elements still fill her drawings.
"My default imagery is drawing fish!"
Her work is inspired by situations – what stands out to her as beautiful, odd, unusual, or otherwise causes an emotional reaction - and often appears narrative and evokes fanciful memories of times gone by.
"I primarily work on Arches watercolor paper, using black line or acrylic ink in watercolor techniques. I have also used Caran d’Ache water soluble crayons and would like to do more painting with acrylics."
September's Guest Artist
Ron Snowden - Watercolor Painting
Please welcome award-winning local watercolor artist Ron Snowden, Ebb Tide Gallery's Guest Artist for September!
