Loved this gem. As much as I am ashamed to admit...I was unaware of this gallery. I will definitely be back. Very interesting collections. Loved the Mike Lynch collection.

Wonderful cozy gallery! With scheduling during Covid, the more private viewing is a nice experience. Exhibits change often (every 6 weeks or so, I think), which is a great plus. They also have local artists spotlighted here.

Some outstanding artists represented. It's a cozy gallery. I like when the back yard Annex has an opening during the main gallery vernissage.
