Many of our artists are finding new collectors, some of whom are only beginning to find their passion, making this endeavor most gratifying to Maura and Rob Geils, the volunteer curators of the gallery. As a valuable amenity for the building and its shareholders, we invite the neighborhood and our friends to join us in our celebrations introducing the artists every 6 weeks or so. The 350 Bleecker community prides itself on its important anchor position in the West Village, and as such strives to open its doors in order to provide a rare community service to all who join us.
