Only 3 more days between now and opening! I can’t believe we are 99% done and will be opening our doors to the public this Thursday. It has been a lot of work, an incredible amount to be exact. I think we will all agree that we will never do something like this again. The funny thing about not knowing what you are doing, not only does it take forever, but you have no idea how long it will take. But damn, does it ever look good!

And have a look at what we started with and the almost finished product.

So come on out April 10th and see for yourself!

So far the response to the call for submissions has been outstanding - we have received work from all manner of artist. We do need to remind people, though, that we are a photo-based gallery and as such are looking for only that type of work. We need more, we want to see what everyone out there has to offer. We know it is hard to submit to a gallery that is not even open yet, but trust us, it’s coming soon!

With our first show opening April 10th, we only 3 weeks left to finish the space. But, as you can see from Sean’s pictures, we are getting close. Everything has been primed and the first coat of paint is on the ceiling. Another day of painting, install the lights, lay the floor and most of the big stuff is done.

If all goes well,  we will also finish the floating wall and have a proper desk and counter. The front is going to be an area for portfolios with stools for seating. We may even put in a bench. Get the computer in, set up phone and internet, get the credit/debit terminal.

We might just have ourselves a fancy little space come April
