Welcome to the Napa Gallery

Alex Evans|

I am so excited to welcome you into our space. Dream Longer Studios is co-located with Blackbird Vineyards at 831 Latour Court in Napa Valley, and it is exciting to finally open the doors and invite people in.

This past weekend, Blackbird Vineyards hosted 12 wineries to show off some of Napa Valley’s finest wines as a kickoff to BottleRock, an incredible music festival. The tasting took place throughout our gallery and crystal room, and I’m not sure any of us realized just how fun, vibrant, and successful it would be. We had an absolute blast.

Some of our favourite vintner partners joined us, including Mending Wall, Vineyard House, and Pestoni Ranch. PLYGNS (otherwise known as DJ Timmy Tim) kept the energy flowing with wonderful music, while Taco Addict served fresh, hot Mexican food.

The gallery was buzzing.

For many guests, this was their first opportunity to experience the space, see the art, and explore the crystal room. A year ago, this was an ordinary office. We moved walls, replaced floors, and painted everything gallery white. Slowly, we hung the artwork and then crystal by crystal, the space began to take shape. It has taken nearly four years to build the crystal collection we now have in the shop, and seeing people connect with it felt incredibly special.

One of my favourite parts of the weekend was the conversations. We talked about art, crystals, healing, ritual, and possibility. We talked about what this space could become and how it might serve as a place for community and connection.

Already, ideas are beginning to bloom. I’ve had requests for paint-and-sip evenings and even a knit-and-sip gathering, which I absolutely love. We’ve already started hosting Twilight Sessions featuring local musicians, along with a few Saturday morning yoga classes. We’re currently in conversations with instructors to make yoga a weekly offering.

Dream Longer Studios has always been about connection, creativity, and gathering in meaningful ways, and this weekend felt like the first glimpse of what that might become.

I hope you’ll stop by, say hello, and help shape what comes next.
