The mission of the Dakota Ridge Gallery is to provide a venue where the public can view and appreciate the art of photography and provide an opportunity for talented new and mid-career photographic artists to display their work. Our goal is to build upon the natural bond most people already feel for photography by exhibiting work that reveals the expressive range of the medium, provides visitors with new and unique visual experiences and extends their understanding of photographic art.

By presenting a diverse array of accomplished fine art photographers, and working with other local arts organizations, Dakota Ridge also seeks to increase the profile of the Poconos region as a destination where the arts, both visual and performance-based, can be enjoyed and appreciated by the public.
