About

Raitman Art Galleries has its Vail gallery at 223 Gore Creek Drive, on the bank of Gore Creek in the middle of Vail Village. The Raitman family opened its first gallery in Breckenridge in 2007, came to Vail in 2013 and moved into this larger space in 2018, and it still runs all three of its galleries.

The collection leans on contemporary work made in Colorado: representational mountain landscapes and wildlife hang alongside abstract pieces, in paint, bronze, glass and other media. It rewards a slow browse after dinner as much as a serious purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is Raitman Art Galleries in Vail?
At 223 Gore Creek Drive in Vail Village, on the bank of Gore Creek, downstairs from El Segundo and between Up the Creek, Lancelot and Mountain Standard, so dinner is a few yards away in any direction. Park in the main Vail Village parking structure; the gondola is about 100 yards away.
What are the hours?
The gallery does not publish clock hours on its website. Its Vail page says only that in winter it stays open well into the evening, which makes it a natural stop after dinner in the Village. For a specific day, call (970) 476-4883 before you go.
What kind of art does it show, and which artists?
Mostly contemporary work, much of it created in Colorado: representational mountain landscapes and wildlife hang alongside abstract pieces, in painting, bronze, glass, steel and mixed media, with occasional historical pieces. The gallery represents about 60 artists; names visitors ask for most include impressionist landscape painter Robert Moore and his son Robbie, wildlife painter Doyle Hostetler, bronze sculptor Clay Enoch, Fekadu Mekasha, whose portraits are welded from stainless-steel wire mesh, and Houston Llew's Spiritiles. Every piece comes with a biography of the artist and a certificate of authenticity.
Can I see prices and buy online?
Yes, unlike many galleries, Raitman publishes prices in its online gallery at raitmanart.com, and most of the collection is viewable there. To give the shape of it at the time this was checked (October 2026): Houston Llew Spiritiles are mostly $199 each, and original paintings by artists such as Doyle Hostetler ranged from $1,000 to $17,850, with sold pieces marked "Sold." Gift cards are also sold online. If a piece you like is shown online, live chat or email can confirm which of the three galleries it is currently hanging in.
Are there artist shows, and can I meet the artists?
Yes. The gallery runs a rotating programme of Vail shows, and visiting artists typically paint or sculpt live in the gallery during their appearance days. The most recent Vail show on the gallery's schedule was Robert and Robbie Moore, September 21 to October 13, 2026 (the father-son landscape painters' fall visit, timed for aspen colour, has become a tradition, sometimes including a short outing to watch them paint outdoors). That show has ended; check the Vail shows page on raitmanart.com or join the gallery's newsletter for the next dates.
Can I buy if I live out of state?
Yes, most of the gallery's clients do not live in Colorado. Work ships worldwide, fully insured and expertly packed, and before you decide, the gallery can digitally place a painting or sculpture on a photo of your wall so you can judge scale and colour at home. Email [email protected] or call any of the three galleries to start.
Can I commission a piece, or pay over time?
Yes to both. Many of the gallery's artists take commissions, with size, colours and composition customised for private and corporate clients, and the gallery offers interest-free, flexible layaway plans. It accepts every major credit card company, checks or cash, and its interior-decorating consulting, including bringing a piece to your home or office in person and advising on placement, scale and colour, is complimentary.
Are there other Raitman galleries?
Two, both in Breckenridge: 100 North Main Street ((970) 547-8399), the original 2007 gallery, and 421 South Main Street ((970) 771-3621), opened in 2017. The family runs all three galleries, and most of the collection is also online.
How do I contact the Vail gallery?
Call (970) 476-4883 or email [email protected]. The Vail sales consultants named on the gallery's website are Rob Litt and Trinity Wall.
