DUMBO 1st Thursday Gallery Walk

Give The Gift Of Art

The gallery will be open until 9:00pm on Thursday, December 6th

Over the past several years, this monthly event has steadily grown in popularity. This month, there are approximately 22 exhibitions/performances to visit, with the critical mass centered on the gallery building where Klompching Gallery is located.

More details about the gallery walk can be found here.

This month, it's a great opportunity to catch our current exhibition, of outstanding photographs by John Blakemore, before the show closes on the 22nd of December. If you haven't had a chance to visit it yet, we really do recommend it. Blakemore's photographs are on offer from a very conservative $1,500, and would make an excellent addition to any collection.

We look forward to seeing you!
