A unique art and gift gallery featuring watercolors and prints of Catalina Island. A wonderful selection of note cards, ceramics, interesting picture frames and one of a kind gifts. Also, the famous Catalina Tile.

William Wrigley purchased Santa Catalina Island in 1919. He had a vision of a magic island to draw tourists from the mainland. As development occurred it was soon discovered that the island harbored great quantities of red clays. The clays were tested and determined to be ideal for building materials. As construction with clay materials commenced, a natural interest among the workers for art tile and pottery was created, thus producing the beautiful ambiance of decorative tiles on roofs, buildings, stairways, and fountains throughout the city of Avalon. The tile-manufacturing plant's largest and most important project was the Casino; this masterpiece is the landmark of Catalina.
