The j fergeson gallery brings together the work of nationally recognized and local artists in the gallery space as well as in the gift shop. The gallery was opened in 2008 by Jarrod Fergeson, whose mission is to feature contemporary painting, ceramics, sculpture and photography.

The carefully curated gift shop displays a similar variety -- from handmade jewelry and gifts to art books, woodwork and even one-of-a-kind belt buckles. The range of work promises to introduce gallery visitors to artists and craftspeople they might not otherwise encounter, meaning the j fergeson gallery has an eye on education as well as aesthetics.

Jarrod Fergeson opened the j fergeson gallery in Farmville, Virginia, a destination for antiques and home furnishings known all along the East Coast. The gallery is Farmville’s only commercial art gallery.
