Art Galleries at OPAC

Discover the visual arts at the Oxford Performing Arts Center through two distinctive gallery spaces—each with its own focus and story.

The Martin-Lett Gallery of Art

Located off the main lobby of OPAC, the Martin-Lett Gallery of Art opened in July 2014 and is named in honor of two founding members of the Oxford Arts Council. The gallery presents rotating exhibitions throughout the year featuring both local artists and gallery-represented talent from across the country.

Some works on display are available for purchase, offering visitors the opportunity to acquire meaningful pieces while supporting working artists.

Hours: Tuesday through Friday, 12:00 p.m.–5:00 p.m., and during OPAC events
Location: 100 Choccolocco Street, Oxford, Alabama 36203

The Wren’s Nest Gallery

The Wren’s Nest Gallery is the home gallery of internationally renowned wildlife artist Dr. Larry K. Martin. Visitors will find original paintings, limited-edition prints, giclées, and collectibles, many of which showcase regional wildlife and natural beauty. Dr. Martin’s signature “soft acrylic” technique has earned him international recognition for its lifelike texture and warmth.

Hours: Tuesday through Friday, 12:00 p.m.–5:00 p.m., and during OPAC performances
Location: Suite 200, 100 E Choccolocco Street, Oxford, Alabama 36203
