At the Canyon Road location, visitors can find the gallery open until 7 p.m. on the fourth Friday of the month, May through September. The openings feature live music in the summer and artists in attendance throughout the year.

Nowlin, Gail Gash Taylor, Liz Wolf, Paul Rhymer, Jim Eppler, Debra Sindt and Hib Sabin.
Manitou Gallery asked artists to participate by choosing an animal that they personally relate with. In addition to their artwork, the gallery asked that each artist bring in a small explanation of their work to accompany each piece. These small descriptions will be displayed with the work.
