Our Story

The Patrician Gallery is proud to introduce a diverse and eclectic selection of national artists and artisans to the Wilmette and Northshore community. For Patti, the gallery represents the fulfillment of a lifelong dream, a vision she and her partner Patrice conceived over a glass of rosé as they sought a meaningful evolution in the arts. The name was a natural, and their vision has given rise to a warm and inviting space intended to foster community engagement and inspire creativity.

The gallery is where art converges with design, offering a dynamic setting for creative events such as workshops, lectures, demonstrations, and exhibitions. Drawing upon their combined expertise in the commercial art realm representing photographers, directors, illustrators, and designers for Fortune 500 companies and global ad agencies, Patti and Patrice bring a wealth of experience and insight to this new venture.

Both women have deep roots in the Northshore area, having raised their families there and actively participated in arts and community organizations throughout their careers. Their enthusiasm and passion for artistry, innovation, and community spirit create a truly enriching experience for all who walk through the gallery’s doors.

The gallery is open Tuesday – Saturday from 11 AM to 5 PM, and on Thursdays from 12 PM to 8 PM. Stop by for a chat — we welcome visitors to experience the creativity and inspiration that are the essence of the Patrician Gallery.
