From its origin in 1902 in a tent in the California Wilderness, Best's Studio, now operating as The Ansel Adams Gallery, has evolved into a center that celebrates the arts and grandeur of our environment. The Ansel Adams Gallery strives to cultivate aesthetic appreciation and a concern for our natural world by offering visitors a unique variety of handcrafts, books, fine arts, and an extraordinary collection of Ansel Adams original photographs.
