About Us

The House of Maria was born long before it arrived on the waves of grace in the little coastal town of Mossel Bay.
Our doors opened in 2007, and the creative bursting of life was celebrated under the huge shady tree on the corner of Marsh Street. In 2015 we moved to a new location as we expanded, and eventually in 2021 we made another move to an exciting new space as our business grew. You'll now find us at 29 Marsh Street in Mossel Bay.

The House of Maria consists of a dedicated team who brings Maria’s art, gift collections, and other projects to life. Together, we strive to see Maria’s vision flourish, creating works that inspire and touch hearts.

House of Maria has a story to tell—a story of grace, goodness, and creativity. It’s not about ourselves or the people who work here, but about the beauty, hope, and inspiration that shine through every piece of art and every encounter. Our vision is to embrace life fully and turn our gaze hopefully toward the future, chasing the possibility of resurrected dreams. Excellence and professional service guide everything we do.

Whether you invest in a one-of-a-kind artwork or choose a print or gift, you can be assured that each piece is created with care, heart, and intention.

Today Maria is affectionately known as ‘South Africa’s Artist of the People.’ We aim to bring her art into every home as a source of inspiration and encouragement. House of Maria is not just a gallery—it is a home for every visitor, a place where you are remembered, appreciated, and celebrated.

House of Maria – a welcome to all!
