The gift shop and gallery for local artists includes pottery, fabric art, folk art, colored pencil sketches, photography (in the form of framed art and greeting cards), wood craftsmanship and jewelry.
The store also features Ruth's visitor guide to Ada as well as several booklets she compiled of local history. The gallery is open 10-4 Thursday and Friday and 10-2 Saturday.
