Gallery Forty-one is an artisan's
guild, dedicated to fostering and showcasing creations from local
artists and craftspeople.
General Information
Gallery 41 was founded in 1998 by a small group of artists who were
interested in bringing their work to this community. In February
of 2002, ownership changed from a partnership to a cooperative.
As a cooperative, the gallery is owned and managed by the artists
who are members. Each artist shares in the responsibility of overhead
costs, management decisions, gallery sitting, and accepting new
members.
Applying for Membership
Gallery meetings take place once a month; prospective artists are
juried during these meetings. Artists interested in applying for
membership should contact the Gallery to schedule a review of their
work. A membership application will need to be completed. This can
be picked up at the gallery or be mailed to you.
