ABOUT GRAY LOFT GALLERY
Gray
Loft Gallery has promoted the rich art culture of Jingletown and the
greater Bay Area for 11 years. The gallery has been referred to as a
hidden gem in Jingletown, and noted by the late Kenneth Baker, former SF
Chronicle Art Critic, in his Visual Arts Don’t Miss Column as “…A space
gaining prominence in the Bay Area…” The mission of the gallery is to
provide exhibition opportunities for artists in a setting that is an
alternative to the traditional gallery model. We hope to inspire, engage
and celebrate artists in our community and beyond. We acknowledge the
achievements of emerging, mid-career and established artists – with an
emphasis on those who live and work in the Bay Area – in a
non-traditional art space. A number of artists began their art career at
Gray Loft Gallery. “I have
always enjoyed this gallery, superb atmosphere and lighting. The
polished and worn hardwood floors creek slightly in places as you climb
to the third floor, providing a granular and unique, organic aesthetic.
This is a do-not-miss venue in the East Bay.” – Facebook ReviewGray Loft Gallery has received "Best Art Gallery" in the Oakland Magazine's Readers Choice Award in 2016, 2017, 2021 and voted one of five top art galleries in 2022.
GRAY LOFT GALLERYis a proud member of the Oakland Art Murmur andJingletown Arts and Business Association.Hours: Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays by appointment2889 Ford Street, third floor, Oakland CA 94601Not wheelchair accessible.

The Gray Loft Gallery ended the exhibition, Summer Salon, with the usual bang at the gallery's closing reception for the show, (links below).
Dick Winter came through once again when he poured the special wine created at the Alameda based Rock Wall Wine Company.

And Rachel LaPell gave what she calls her ArtTalk, an improvised performance referencing the works in the exhibition (link below).

Leslie Frierman Grunditz showed and explained to me the fascinating signifiers present in her & her husband, Ake's "sculpture"/installation piece. They both decided they needed to document the history behind the piece; I think it's a fantastic idea. Go for it Kids!
