The Harrington Gallery features the works of renowned visual artists of regional and national stature in painting, sculpture, installations, and conceptual art.
The Firehouse Arts Center Gallery is an approximately 2,000 square foot space divided into two rooms. The smaller room is part of the preserved original building with brick walls, while the larger gallery is part of the new construction spanning 1,240 square feet.
With vast wall space, beautiful wooden floors, moveable wall panels, and pedestals for 3D work, Harrington Gallery is an ideal space to showcase each of our featured artists.
Exhibit Dates: April 24 - May 25, 2013
Seventy-two works of art were selected for this exhibit and feature an exciting variety of paintings, photography, and sculpture by both emerging and accomplished artists from the greater Bay Area. Elizabeth Kathleen Mitchell, the Burton and Deedee McMurtry Curator of Prints, Drawings and Photographs at the Cantor Arts Center, Stanford University, juried the exhibit.
