A Home for Art in Virginia Beach
The Stravitz Sculpture and Fine Art Gallery is more than just a gallery; it's a working studio, a meeting place, and a celebration of artistic expression. Located on Laskin Road in Virginia Beach, it's become a staple of the local art scene since opening in 2008. The gallery was founded by Richard Stravitz, a master sculptor who had a vision to bring bronze sculpture into the spotlight, and that vision is still very much alive today.
Walk through the doors, and you'll find a mix of original paintings, handcrafted jewelry, vibrant art glass, and, of course, Richard's own bronze sculptures. Many of the artists we feature are from the region, though our collection includes work from national and international talents. Whether you're a seasoned collector or just browsing, there's always something worth stopping to admire.

Meet the Artist
One thing that makes this gallery truly unique is that it's also Richard Stravitz's studio. Most days, you'll find him working on his latest piece right here, in the gallery. He's always happy to chat, especially if you're curious about sculpture or want to learn about the "lost wax" method he uses to cast bronze. It's not every day you get to meet the artist while viewing their work, let alone watch it come to life.
More Than Just Sculptures
While sculpting is at the heart of what we do, the gallery has grown to offer more. You'll find a curated collection of fine jewelry, detailed by hand, and art glass that plays with color, light, and form. These pieces bring a different energy into the space, complementing the larger works and inviting you to explore at your own pace.
We also offer personalized service for collectors and interior designers. Our Fine Art consultants are happy to help arrange private showings or work with you to find artwork that fits beautifully in your home or office.
There's no need to schedule an appointment; stop by. Whether you're here to browse, to buy, or just to talk art, we're always glad to see you.
