Two large floors of various antique vendors. Extremely well organized, clean and all manner of antiques and collectibles - you can find anything here with a wide range of prices from antique tools to artwork to furniture to housewares - something for everyone! Got a beautiful little hand painted metal tray for only $5 and a charming hand painted wooden rotating musical box from Germany for my granddaughter.

This is a cool place for adults. It might even be fascinating for kids as long as they can keep their hands in their pockets. As you walk in there is a massive oak post office service window with mail boxes. NOT for sale. Inside the door is the service desk. the staff are very knowledgeable about the merchandise located on two floors,This place has a room full of antique hand tools. Except for the furniture and hand tools, the contents are organized by vendor (who tend to have specialties). If you are looking for a specific item that is unavailable they'll put you on a list for the vendor. You may find HO railroads, board games, street signs, china, records, wedding gowns, depression glass. It's all fair game. Check it out. Only about 10 miles from Mohegan Sun and 15 from Foxwoods.

My son and I visited Nature’s Art yesterday. He had never been there and I hadn’t been there in 11 years. We had a great time. Even with some of the things closed due to COVID we had plenty to do. The staff was friendly and helpful. The prices in the gift shop were reasonable and the ice cream was great. They have even more things coming in the future. I highly recommend it
