Artist Receptions
The EAGM hosts receptions for exhibiting artists whenever possible. Events such as these allow visitors to meet artists and learn more about their work. The artists give a brief talk or walkthrough of their art practice and answer questions from the crowd. The gallery provides refreshments throughout the event. Artist Receptions last approx. 2 hours, and are "come and go" style. There is no dress code and everyone is invited to attend. Children are also welcome to come with their families. Scheduled artist talks are typically congruent with the receptions and begin approximately 1/2 hour into the reception.
New Changes for 2013
Please make note that the EAGM has introduced NEW hours, which took effect in February 2012. Check out our contact page for more information! Also undergoing some changes is our Membership campaign, which will be reflected on our website in the upcoming weeks. Please check back soon.
