About

A fine art gallery

Story

History

Established in 1996.

Mary Williams Fine Arts LLC was started by Mary Williams and Nancy Ferries in January of 1996. Our gallery was located in Boulder Colorado at 21St. and Pearl St. We started out representing a collection of fine antique prints and maps, fine custom framing and 2(!) living artists. Over the years, we grew the living artist arm of our business, and today, represent over 50 men and women. Nancy and I remained partners until 2006, when my husband and I bought out her interest in the business.

In 2012, we moved the gallery to a warehouse on the east side of Boulder. It is a stunning space in which to display fine art, parking is plentiful, and most importantly, my clients and artists love our new home. I have nick-named the gallery "The Secret Garden" as it is truly an oasis of beauty on the outskirts of town. I am a very grateful woman to have re-emerged in what will be .......my last, best place. It is with thanks and pride that we have entered our 20th year in business.

Meet the owner

I moved to Boulder, Colorado in 1981 from Indianapolis. My first job, by pure coincidence, was in an art gallery in Denver. I spent almost 3 years there learning the basics of running an antique print gallery and how to design custom framing. I moved on to help open and manage a second antique print gallery in Boulder where I further developed my skills and passion for Fine Art and Fine Custom Framing. I was lucky to have been able to open my own gallery in 1996. This time, my gallery featured the antique prints and custom framing side of things but I added the representation of living artists from all over the U.S. This arm of my business has been deeply rewarding over these many years and I consider my group of artists to be amongst the finest in the country. I hope to continue enjoying my role as " The woman who wears most of the hats". It has been a great ride...one that I am honored to have been a part of.
