The Artisans' Co-op at Bodega is a cooperative of local artisans who share time and work while running their gallery in the village of Bodega, California. All members' work is juried to ensure quality and originality. The Co-op has been in business since 1996. Many of our members have won awards, spent a lifetime working in their medium, have pieces in permanent museum collections, are published, or teach.

Over the years the Co-op has grown from the original dozen artists to fifty-three members. The artists work in diverse media including watercolor, photography, artful apparel and accessories, pottery, art glass, jewelry, basketry, fiber arts, journals, gourd art, leatherwork, etc. Many of the fiber art artists use locally grown wool and alpaca from farms in the area.

The Artisan' Co-op in Bodega continues to encourage local artists to become full members and participate in running the Co-op. To get a sneak peak at some of the artists' work and see a featured Artist of the Month, visit www.artisansco-op.com.
