The Art in Motion Show

Join GALA as we promote and nurture the visual arts by showcasing work from a host of diverse local artists. We are dedicated to:

  • Fostering an environment that inspires learning and appreciation for art, art history, craft, creativity, artistic philosophy, and imagination.

  • Supporting both emerging and established artists, as well as other arts organizations.

  • Raising the awareness of the rich cultural tapestry of our neighborhoods.

We bring art into the community!
