Piper Johnson is a visual artist, curator, and founder of Piper J Gallery and Ridgeline Gallery in Truckee, California. Known for her keen eye and entrepreneurial spirit, Piper has built two distinct gallery spaces that showcase contemporary fine art designed for the modern mountain home—drawing in collectors from across the West. With a background in painting and a passion for connecting people with original art, Piper is equally at home behind the easel and in front of a white wall, curating exhibitions that celebrate bold, contemporary voices. Her work as a gallerist goes beyond representation—she fosters deep relationships with artists, supports emerging talent, and offers a personalized, luxury experience for collectors, including in-home consultations and a “try before you buy” program. Piper is also a driving force behind Truckee’s growing cultural scene. Through community events, art walks, and curated experiences, she is on a mission to put Truckee on the map as a destination for serious art lovers. As she expands her gallery presence and returns to her own painting practice, Piper continues to blur the lines between artist, curator, and creative visionary.
