COVID PREPAREDNESS
Historically, our gallery has hosted one-weekend, whirlwind events: a high-energy flurry of art sales. This Spring, we quickly pivoted to bring our Affordable Art Show online... and we sold a lot of art. We are staying adaptive, creative, and committed to supporting artists in the Bay Area, when art is needed the most: Right now.
We can host 7 people at one time in our 1,500 square foot gallery space, with ample space for social distancing. Masks are required, and we will likely issue timed tickets for opening weekend. All work will be available for sale on our excellent online gallery, with contactless pickup and worldwide shipping easily available.
We are taking our responsibility to our community in flattening the curve extremely seriously. We love you guys, and we love it here. If you'd like to learn more about how our staff is ensuring that we are operating as safely as possible, please reach out directly.
