We are so excited to invite K-5 creatives back to the Art Lab at Gallery Navarre this summer!
Every Art Lab workshop "smashes" Lake Minnetonka's features, ecology, and history with STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art and math) resulting in dynamic creative experiences grounded in place-based education!
From fabric arts and coding to painting, print-making and more, there are opportunities for every young creative! Explore our 2026 Summer Catalog to learn more. Registration is open.
Come in and immerse yourself in a multitude of Lake Minnetonka-themed maps, original art, books, cards, games, postcards, housewares and more. Gallery Navarre is a treasure and celebrates the wonderful community that is Lake Minnetonka in so many ways.
Looking for fun on a Saturday morning or some creative time this summer? Our Art Lab is a fun and welcoming space for K-5 children offering art classes and creative workshops grounded in place-based education, connecting our experiences to many aspects of Lake Minnetonka!
Watch for our upcoming "Weaving the Water Creative Kit" bringing the spirit of the Art Lab home!
The original passion of founder Joan Wolfe, Gallery Navarre became a celebration of Lake Minnetonka through original art, maps, pottery, books, wood carvings, sculpture, notecards, historic postcards and more. After Joan's passing in 2023, guided by Joan's daughter Wendy, artist Karen Rose, and the rest of the Gallery Navarre family, the Gallery continues to be open monthly and expanded into the synergy of community, history and arts education.
If you would like additional information about product availability, to make personalized purchasing arrangements, or to learn more about our future educational and artistic opportunities, please email gallerynavarre@gmail.com.

On Custom Framing...
We recognize that for almost 30 years, Gallery Navarre has been a special place for those looking for custom framing. With the loss of Joan and her talents, we had to shift our focus.
If you are looking for custom framing, we would like to introduce you to Lone Pine Framing in Excelsior.
