How this Family-Owned Gallery Built a Sensational International Miniature Art Show
Founder Chester Smith loved traveling to art shows and events. One Florida trip changed it all. He happened on The Miniature Art Society of Florida’s exquisite miniature art show. This fascinating genre instantly came alive right before his eyes! Chester was so inspired by this encounter, that when he returned home, he launched his first miniature art show at Seaside Art Gallery.
Now a Sought-After International Miniature Art Show
The mini show debuted in 1991, and grew rapidly into the first-class, world-wide venue that it is today. The gallery's second generation owner Melanie Smith hosts miniaturists from 5 continents, 8 countries, including the USA. Literally 100’s of minis shift the atmosphere of the show room with color, scale, and imagination. These incredible originals depict life from every corner of the earth. With so many remarkable pieces it's hard to choose just one to call your own.
Please note, the art stays in the show until it concludes…then we ship it to you free. Who knows? Yours may win an award in the show! All mini show sales are final.
