A Step Above Gallery and Gifts

27 North Main Street

Berlin, MD 21811

 Our story starts when we opened an art Gallery in a large loft above an antique store, Town Center Antiques, in a small Historic town called Berlin. Our concept was to create a gallery which would house a place for local artist to show and sell their works. We maintained this concept with only local art work for over four years. We learned alot about the local art scene and met alot of artists near and far on the Eastern Shore. On September 1, 2007 we moved the Step Above Art Gallery from the loft over the antique store and opened our new doors down on Main Street in the heart of town. We changed our concept a little bit and renamed our store A Step Above Gallery and Gifts. We still have most of the local artists as before but we added gifts to our mix. We also added a few signature items and collectibles  like Trollbeads. We divided the gallery into several main rooms including a glass room, enchanted room, far east room, jewelry counters, and lots of wall space for the art work. Our mission is still to support our local artists and this area has many talented professional craftsmen who create excellent works of art. If you have been looking for a truly unique and different gallery with great gifts ideas  for your home or office then your search is over. Visit our gallery, join us in our art receptions, and see what a treat this gallery really is.

						<p>&nbsp;Our story starts when we opened an art Gallery in a large loft above an antique store, Town Center Antiques, in a small Historic town called Berlin. Our concept was to create a gallery which would house a place for local artist to show and sell their works. We maintained this concept with only local art work for over four years. We learned alot about the local art scene and met alot of artists near and far on the Eastern Shore. On September 1, 2007 we moved the Step Above Art Gallery from the loft over the antique store and opened our new doors down on Main Street in the heart of town. We changed our concept a little bit and renamed our store A Step Above Gallery and Gifts. We still have most of the local artists as before but we added gifts to our mix. We also added a few signature items and collectibles&nbsp; like Trollbeads. We divided the gallery into several main rooms including a glass room, enchanted room, far east room, jewelry counters, and lots of wall space for the art work. Our mission is still to support our local artists and this area has many talented professional craftsmen who create excellent works of art. If you have been looking for a truly unique and different gallery with great gifts ideas&nbsp; for your home or office then your search is over. Visit our gallery, join us in our art receptions, and see what a treat this gallery really is.</p>		</div>

						<p>&nbsp;Our story starts when we opened an art Gallery in a large loft above an antique store, Town Center Antiques, in a small Historic town called Berlin. Our concept was to create a gallery which would house a place for local artist to show and sell their works. We maintained this concept with only local art work for over four years. We learned alot about the local art scene and met alot of artists near and far on the Eastern Shore. On September 1, 2007 we moved the Step Above Art Gallery from the loft over the antique store and opened our new doors down on Main Street in the heart of town. We changed our concept a little bit and renamed our store A Step Above Gallery and Gifts. We still have most of the local artists as before but we added gifts to our mix. We also added a few signature items and collectibles&nbsp; like Trollbeads. We divided the gallery into several main rooms including a glass room, enchanted room, far east room, jewelry counters, and lots of wall space for the art work. Our mission is still to support our local artists and this area has many talented professional craftsmen who create excellent works of art. If you have been looking for a truly unique and different gallery with great gifts ideas&nbsp; for your home or office then your search is over. Visit our gallery, join us in our art receptions, and see what a treat this gallery really is.</p>		</div>

						<p>&nbsp;Our story starts when we opened an art Gallery in a large loft above an antique store, Town Center Antiques, in a small Historic town called Berlin. Our concept was to create a gallery which would house a place for local artist to show and sell their works. We maintained this concept with only local art work for over four years. We learned alot about the local art scene and met alot of artists near and far on the Eastern Shore. On September 1, 2007 we moved the Step Above Art Gallery from the loft over the antique store and opened our new doors down on Main Street in the heart of town. We changed our concept a little bit and renamed our store A Step Above Gallery and Gifts. We still have most of the local artists as before but we added gifts to our mix. We also added a few signature items and collectibles&nbsp; like Trollbeads. We divided the gallery into several main rooms including a glass room, enchanted room, far east room, jewelry counters, and lots of wall space for the art work. Our mission is still to support our local artists and this area has many talented professional craftsmen who create excellent works of art. If you have been looking for a truly unique and different gallery with great gifts ideas&nbsp; for your home or office then your search is over. Visit our gallery, join us in our art receptions, and see what a treat this gallery really is.</p>		</div>

						<p>&nbsp;Our story starts when we opened an art Gallery in a large loft above an antique store, Town Center Antiques, in a small Historic town called Berlin. Our concept was to create a gallery which would house a place for local artist to show and sell their works. We maintained this concept with only local art work for over four years. We learned alot about the local art scene and met alot of artists near and far on the Eastern Shore. On September 1, 2007 we moved the Step Above Art Gallery from the loft over the antique store and opened our new doors down on Main Street in the heart of town. We changed our concept a little bit and renamed our store A Step Above Gallery and Gifts. We still have most of the local artists as before but we added gifts to our mix. We also added a few signature items and collectibles&nbsp; like Trollbeads. We divided the gallery into several main rooms including a glass room, enchanted room, far east room, jewelry counters, and lots of wall space for the art work. Our mission is still to support our local artists and this area has many talented professional craftsmen who create excellent works of art. If you have been looking for a truly unique and different gallery with great gifts ideas&nbsp; for your home or office then your search is over. Visit our gallery, join us in our art receptions, and see what a treat this gallery really is.</p>		</div>

						<p>&nbsp;Our story starts when we opened an art Gallery in a large loft above an antique store, Town Center Antiques, in a small Historic town called Berlin. Our concept was to create a gallery which would house a place for local artist to show and sell their works. We maintained this concept with only local art work for over four years. We learned alot about the local art scene and met alot of artists near and far on the Eastern Shore. On September 1, 2007 we moved the Step Above Art Gallery from the loft over the antique store and opened our new doors down on Main Street in the heart of town. We changed our concept a little bit and renamed our store A Step Above Gallery and Gifts. We still have most of the local artists as before but we added gifts to our mix. We also added a few signature items and collectibles&nbsp; like Trollbeads. We divided the gallery into several main rooms including a glass room, enchanted room, far east room, jewelry counters, and lots of wall space for the art work. Our mission is still to support our local artists and this area has many talented professional craftsmen who create excellent works of art. If you have been looking for a truly unique and different gallery with great gifts ideas&nbsp; for your home or office then your search is over. Visit our gallery, join us in our art receptions, and see what a treat this gallery really is.</p>		</div>

						<p>&nbsp;Our story starts when we opened an art Gallery in a large loft above an antique store, Town Center Antiques, in a small Historic town called Berlin. Our concept was to create a gallery which would house a place for local artist to show and sell their works. We maintained this concept with only local art work for over four years. We learned alot about the local art scene and met alot of artists near and far on the Eastern Shore. On September 1, 2007 we moved the Step Above Art Gallery from the loft over the antique store and opened our new doors down on Main Street in the heart of town. We changed our concept a little bit and renamed our store A Step Above Gallery and Gifts. We still have most of the local artists as before but we added gifts to our mix. We also added a few signature items and collectibles&nbsp; like Trollbeads. We divided the gallery into several main rooms including a glass room, enchanted room, far east room, jewelry counters, and lots of wall space for the art work. Our mission is still to support our local artists and this area has many talented professional craftsmen who create excellent works of art. If you have been looking for a truly unique and different gallery with great gifts ideas&nbsp; for your home or office then your search is over. Visit our gallery, join us in our art receptions, and see what a treat this gallery really is.</p>		</div>

						<p>&nbsp;Our story starts when we opened an art Gallery in a large loft above an antique store, Town Center Antiques, in a small Historic town called Berlin. Our concept was to create a gallery which would house a place for local artist to show and sell their works. We maintained this concept with only local art work for over four years. We learned alot about the local art scene and met alot of artists near and far on the Eastern Shore. On September 1, 2007 we moved the Step Above Art Gallery from the loft over the antique store and opened our new doors down on Main Street in the heart of town. We changed our concept a little bit and renamed our store A Step Above Gallery and Gifts. We still have most of the local artists as before but we added gifts to our mix. We also added a few signature items and collectibles&nbsp; like Trollbeads. We divided the gallery into several main rooms including a glass room, enchanted room, far east room, jewelry counters, and lots of wall space for the art work. Our mission is still to support our local artists and this area has many talented professional craftsmen who create excellent works of art. If you have been looking for a truly unique and different gallery with great gifts ideas&nbsp; for your home or office then your search is over. Visit our gallery, join us in our art receptions, and see what a treat this gallery really is.</p>		</div>
