 Cornerstone Art Gallery

Cornerstone Center for the Arts has a small gallery which we use to feature student and local artists. We do not charge any fees for displaying shows and pieces are up for at least a month with an opening on the downtown "First Thursdays" event. We have many openings available still for artists and artists are encouraged to submit photos of their work via email to Robby Tompkins at rtompkins@cornerstonearts.org.

Our gallery is best suited to hanging 2D work and can hold 15-20 pieces. Artists are welcome to price and sell their work. After submitting work, artists will be notified via email if their work is chosen for a show. This is a great opportunity for artists to have their work displayed in a public location with a lot of foot traffic.
