I researched art in Austin prior to my business trip. I had the evening on Thursday to squeeze a few spots in and I wanted to see local artists. This did not disappoint. I was able to see several artists in one place AND purchase art as a souvenir of my trip. The customer service was super friendly and I cannot wait to go back if I find myself in Austin again!

I lived in Austin for a few years and visited a lot of different places for authentic, local art for my home. I really liked the pieces here, even if they weren't my type or style of art, because it really showcased the creativity of Austin. My favorite artist was Autumn Mae, and I love the last print of hers that I bought.
The gallery building's a little tucked away from the main street (South Lamar Blvd) so walk towards the back, it'll be on your left.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0 - 949191Feb 16, 2023

I recommend anyone looking for new, unique art for their home check this place out. I've made a few purchases from them before and having the art work on my wall still makes me smile.
Excellent artists and great business, worth supporting.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Shar S.Las Vegas, NV1075795853Jan 24, 2022
Just like the name says, this is totally a garage. Such a cool concept!
The art here is super trendy and eye-catching, my husband and I really enjoyed it! We also got the chance to meet one of the artists who is featured here, and she was super sweet!
Helpful associates if you have any questions, and a really chill vibe here.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Feb 16, 2020
Nice little art shop, very well lit, clean, and organized into 4 different rooms. The high ceilings also make it feel larger, and the rooms are pretty open, so you can see the pieces from different distances. There are a number of local artists' works, and a nice range of prices so you can grab something as a small gift, or for yourself (into the hundreds). There are some more expensive items but lots of work that are in the $100-300 range of decent size so you can find something that's worth the money for a nice piece of art.
The shop is set back a bit in a sort of alley behind other stores/buildings, with a gravel lot, so if you're wondering where it is, there is a sign on the street pointing to the back.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Leslie J.Austin, TX1491Dec 8, 2020
Step right into a cool bit of Austin! What are local artists up to? Come have a look here and get something to support them getting after their art lives!!!! The art is from LOCAL emerging artists, original paintings for a reasonable $75 - $500, prints on cotton rag paper or panels even less expensive.
Interesting "off the beaten path" funky location and tin shed arrangement.
Came here after going to The Blanton - no better bookends for an arty day in Austin.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - J L.Austin, TX1895129Jul 5, 2022
I love this place. So much variety in the span of artists and styles. They also make posters in various sizes to order.

You just have to come by and appreciate what the Art Garage is.
If you're like me you enjoy art and would like to put a few pieces in your home (more for your enjoyment than for showing off your 'taste'). But you're not sure where to start, what to look for or how things feel. And traditional galleries are forbidding places with a language all their own.
What to do...
Go to the Garage, that's what.
In the physical store, located @2200 South Lamar, you find pieces from something like two dozen or more Austin artists. That's right - Austin talent, baby. Serious, studied, spoofed, surreal - they have it. The gallery is at the end of the long driveway @2200 - and I warn you, the address comes up quick! If you're heading south on South Lamar start looking closely for the 2200 entrance on your right-hand (west) immediately after seeing Bird's next door to Aviary. Your sharp eyes will reward you - make the gentle turn and go all the way to the back of the lot where the gallery sits just to your left.
Three rooms of prints and originals grace you from inside and there is a very good chance you'll be assisted by the lovely and patient Sophia, or the lovely and patient Rachel. Did I also mention they are knowledgable not just about art per se but the artists represented? Go ahead and ask them anything (it can't be any dumber than what I have) and they will respond with aplomb and grace.
With a mixture of emerging and more established artists represented, plus several media and multiple sizes you are sure to find something unique as well as affordable. And if its not in the physical store, check the website for even more.
I'm happy I found this gem and even happier to share. Let your spirits soar while you support Austin creatives.
Go to the Garage.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0
