Holiday Hours
We will be open on Sundays as well in December from 1-5 pm, and as always by appointment.
LYDM Gallery has thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful space at 500 West Main, but alas the December exhibition will be its last there. So if you have not yet visited us there, please come see Annie Harris Massie's beautiful paintings and drawings through November and Clay Witt's new paintings in December.
Spring events
We will continue to have art events and lunches throughout the spring and will put the schedule on the website as soon as it is finalized. We are also available for arts consulting as well. We hope to reopen in a more permanent place in the Fall of 2009. So if you want to keep abreast of our latest developments and moves, please join our confidential email list. > Contact us

Nicole Noelle, who has exhibited in Charlottesville exclusively with Les Yeux du Monde since the opening of the gallery on Water Street in 2001, is now heading for New York! Charlottesville was lucky enough to catch her early in her career and she is devoted to us for that reason. Les Yeux du Monde will host a Holiday Trunk Show on Friday, November 21, from 5 – 8 p..m. We will offer a 20% discount through the weekend on all her jewelry. Her modern designs and innovative interpretations have captivated the local art scene. Geometric shapes, high quality stones and pearls are combined to create one-of-a kind pieces that have been acquired by serious collectors of fine jewelry. Launching a new line, The Collection in New York, Nicole is designing timeless pieces for discriminating tastes. Shop early for the discerning women in your life!
