Message from Owner/CEO:
Hello, my name is Barrie Lawrence and I am the proud owner of Very Barrie. I have been a collector of the arts for the past 8 years. Collecting pieces from artists such as: Andy Warhol, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Dainty, Michael Birawer, Michael Godard and from lots of other amazing artists. Some of these pieces will be on ‘display only’ for ones who appreciate the arts as much as I do, but there will be plenty for sale from over 40 local artists including: Jason Najarak, Chris Price, Scott West of Cloud Cult, a young and talented Rudy Fig, Richard Hubal, Daniel Kerkhoff, Cory Weismann and many, many more.
The mediums of art that Very Barrie has to offer is a huge variety consisting of acrylic, oil and watercolor paintings ranging from landscapes, still life and my personal favorite abstract; also, photography, sculpting, children’s books, and glass blowing.
I have been working on opening Very Barrie for the past 2 years and am very grateful for my friends and family who have helped me through the process of renovating this 18th century house and for everyone’s patience while I’ve been getting it ready to open and transforming it in to the Very Barrie that I’ve dreamed of for so many years. This is truly a dream come true for me and I am excited to share it with my community! I feel as if this is a great addition to my hometown of Shakopee and think it can and will be appreciated by people of all ages ☺
