We’re starting something new!
Each week, we’ll be highlighting one of the locally owned businesses that helps make Weston’s Main Street so special. And for our lodging guests, there’s a little bonus: shop at that week’s featured business, bring your receipt back to the front desk, and receive a FREE late checkout!
And for our very first feature, I had to start with one of my absolute favorites. ❤️
BACK ROADS ART — 416 MAIN ST.
It’s not just a shop, it’s an art gallery filled entirely with handmade pieces, and there is so much to look at that you can walk through again and again and still notice something new every time.
You’ll find everything from wood carvings and metal art to one-of-a-kind handmade creations, all packed into one of the most fun places to explore on Main Street.
Owners Steve and Denise Jarrett have been in business for 20 years — four years in Pleasant Hill before bringing Back Roads Art to Weston, where they’ve now been for 16 years.
I asked Steve what some of his favorite pieces are, and his answer was the metal art monsters by artist Fred Conlon. I have to agree. They are some of the coolest pieces in the gallery and definitely worth stopping in to see.
And of course, no visit is complete without saying hello to Mattie the cat who is arguably the one running the show.
Back Roads Art is the kind of place you don’t rush through. Take your time, look around, look again, admire the craftsmanship, and see what catches your eye.
Staying with Weston Lodging this week? Stop by Back Roads Art at 416 Main St., support local, then bring your receipt to the front desk for your FREE late checkout!
Tell Steve, Denise and Mattie that The Saint George Hotel sent you. ❤️
