Artist Co-op
Established 1974

Welcome to the Commonwheel Artists Co-op, where local Colorado artists offer examples of their creativity in our sales shop.

Since the gallery began in 1974, our mission has been to promote the arts in the Pikes Peak Region. Today our collective energy is focused on our extensive shop, gallery events, and our annual Labor Day Arts and Crafts Festival. We sell wall art, jewelry, glass, pottery, sculptures and clothing.

Commonwheel Artists Co-op has been recognized as a significant resource in the arts community by various groups, including the Pikes Peak Arts Council and the Manitou Springs Chamber of Commerce.

All the wall art, jewelry, glass, pottery, sculpture and clothing exhibited in our charming gallery is made by Colorado artists. You can be assured of selecting unique handmade gifts of art objects for your personal enjoyment.

Our Current Gallery Show

Field Notes

September 6-30, 2019

Our September Gallery show, Field Notes, features jewelry by Karen Harvey and paintings by Andrea Stolarczyk.

Andrea’s paintings are vibrant portraits of Colorado’s native animals. She is a multidisciplinary artist residing in Woodland Park. She believes art is a service industry and it is her honor and joy to share the act of creative collaboration with others. Her work can be found in private collections across the country and has been featured at the Colorado Springs Fine Art Center, Cottonwood Center for the Arts, the Depot Art Center, and the Mountain Arts Festival.

Karen is showcasing hand-crafted art jewelry. Her nature-inspired designs are worked in sterling silver and incorporate mixed-metal art jewelry. The Colorado scenery is Karen’s inspiration to the transformative nature of metalwork. After living away from the area for decades she moved back to Colorado Springs in 2017.
