13th Annual Treasures in Miniature Show

Through May, 2023

Our annual TIM Shows are open calls and are a fascinating display of diverse art work featuring artists from our local community and beyond. This year’s show featured over 200 pieces of art made by 62 talented artists from the Northwest. Whether you like landscapes, jewelry, photography, abstracts, or any other medium of art, even digital, you’re sure to find plenty of discoveries with this show. The quality and variety of pieces are some of the best we have seen. Congratulations on all your beautiful efforts. The work is inspiring whether it be online or in the gallery.

We encourage artists to enter our next TIM show in 2024.

Our gallery exhibits contemporary works of both emerging and established artists working in various mediums including painting, sculpture, jewelry ceramics, encaustics, fiber arts and photography. We also have unique prints and note cards for all occasions. 
The Gallery opened in November 2009 and operates in the spirit of a cooperative, offering members the opportunity to exhibit their work, as well as share ideas, work together, and teach. Our goal is to offer gallery space and visibility for MIVAL members as well as increase awareness and appreciation of the visual arts to the community through classes and demonstrations.

MIVAL Gallery has become a meeting spot for both artists and patrons. We are a group of about twenty five artists who run the gallery as a cooperative.
