Supporting local artists since 1962

About the Hardy Gallery

The gallery is situated directly on the shore of Eagle Harbor and has been a pillar ot the Door County art community since the mid-1900s, providing visibility in a non-commercial venue to new and established artists who may or may not have outside gallery representation. Over the years, the organization has grown from a small, volunteer-run facility to a multifaceted non-profit organization that draws more than 20,000 visitors annually, serves over 750 artists and youth each year and manages over 40 volunteers.

The historic Hardy Gallery enriches the vibrancy of the Door County community by promoting and fostering local art. The Hardy has initiatives that address the needs of the local artist community, the creative enrichment of local youth, and is focused more than ever on educating the public and promoting the visual arts and artists on the Door County peninsula. The Hardy has been - and continues to be - a thriving pillar of the vibrant Door County arts community.
