About J. Petter Galleries
J. Petter Galleries is located in a unique 12,500 square foot fine art gallery building that first housed area artists in the 1930s. It was reintroduced as the Joyce Petter Gallery in 1993. The Art Gallery now features an eclectic collection of fine paintings, sculpture, glass, and more. The galleries are also home to Petter Wine Gallery where you’ll find boutique wines and artful foods at both the wine/small plates bar and wine shop. The Wine Bar/Shop is also known for its private collection of unique cheeses and hand poured chocolates. Of course, you may walk the galleries with a glass from our wine bar.

Customer Testimonials
If folks think they have to drive to the big city for quality art and quality wine–they are mistaken. They should visit J. Petter Galleries. This place is a gem. Whenever we have out of town guests we bring them to see this gallery.
George, Local
BLUE contributor Alexandra Fluegel discovered one well-known gallery that now gives the art of winemaking a place alongside, J. Petter Art & Wine Gallery in Saugatuck. 'There is something about the finer things in life,' owner Juli Petter said. Michigan BLUE considers all the special qualities of this Great Lakes State to be 'the finer points of lie.'
Carole Valade, Editor, Michigan BLUE Magazine
It is always a must stop. It has such a variety of unique things that you can't find elsewhere.
