About Ol' Blue Gallery and Guesthouse
The resurrection of a historic home left for dead in America's Hometown - circa 1854
The Ol' Blue Gallery home was built in 1854. The exterior slats and the structure remains the same as the day it was built...some sanding, some painting and modifications were made to reinforce the home. Some necessary upgrades were made to breath life back into the space and to bring it into the new era, but all upgrades were done with a regard to it's history. Any salvageable wood from the interior walls was sanded and reused.
Ol' Blue Gallery
Resurrected by virtue of the Arts. Established & operated by renowned artist Tai Taeoalii & his wife Adrienne, the Ol' Blue Gallery was resurrected from a historic 1854 pre-Civil War home, left for dead in "America's Hometown" of Hannibal, Missouri, with the intent of exposing southern/midwestern small-town folk to modern artworks not otherwise available, via the surreal works of Tai and the visions of emerging & established guest artists from around the world.

A Personal Message From Tai
Heyo! Make your travel plans now!
We've officially, opened our Ol’ Blue Gallery & Guesthouse and we’d like you to come for a visit.
Take a stroll down the river walk of the mighty Mississippi, visit Mark Twain’s boyhood home, gorge yourself at one of our many bars & restaurants, but even more importantly, come see all of our hard work we've put in on this nearly 7 year rehab project, which we poured our blood, sweat and tears into.
Cheers!
Tai Taeoalii
