Strand Center Gallery

The Strand Center for the Arts was excited to host Off The Wall, with the opening of the exhibition on Friday, November 14th from 5-8pm.

There was an open call for work for members of the community to submit up to 5 pieces of their choosing with a max price of $500 and artists really came through and we ended up with 132 pieces for opening night! Guests are invited and encouraged to not only come to this exhibition to browse the gallery but buy artwork and take it home the SAME day! 

With the exhibition starting Nov. 14th and ending Dec. 15th, this gives people the opportunity to find the perfect holiday gift for a loved one, a friend, or yourself! We are treating this exhibition more as a fundraiser, with proceeds going towards the gallery for repairs including new lighting and new paint.

“This is the first time we’re having this type of exhibition, so it is a bit of an experiment, but I’m excited to see how it all goes! Artists really came though and submitted lots of amazing work!”
