Celebrate Avant-Art Gallery's one-year anniversary with MUSE, a vibrant and inspiring exhibition highlighting the remarkable works of Elaine Coombs, Laura Waldusky, and Christine Tonolini. This special event marks a significant milestone for our women-owned gallery, showcasing the dynamic creativity and visionary artistry of these exceptional women. MUSE is more than just an exhibition; it is a celebration of our gallery’s journey, the incredible achievements of women in art, and the inspiring power of creativity. We know that each of the artists featured in this exhibition will be tightly woven into the fabric of art history, leaving a lasting impact on the world of contemporary art. This event also celebrates the duality of Avant-Art's founders, Ally Ondarza and Abigail Haley, whose vision and dedication have created a space where female artists can thrive and inspire. Their commitment to fostering a community of creativity and innovation is the driving force behind the gallery’s success. We invite you to join us for an evening of art, celebration, and inspiration. Reflect on the muses that inspire us all and celebrate the remarkable journey we’ve embarked upon together.

KW Contemporary Art is delighted to present Tickled Pink, a vibrant group exhibition celebrating the color pink in all its shades and forms. This unique collection showcases a diverse range of artworks, all unified by their use of pink, and aims to raise awareness and support for breast cancer research. Each piece in Tickled Pink is a testament to the power and versatility of this evocative color, offering viewers a rich tapestry of interpretations and styles. From bold abstracts to delicate florals, the exhibition highlights the creativity and passion of the participating artists. In honor of Breast Cancer Awareness, a portion of the proceeds from each artwork sold will be donated to support breast cancer research and awareness initiatives.
