Two DC galleries to close
As we all know, Zenith Gallery recently closed after 30 years on the DC art scene. I've just learned that two more long established DC art galleries will close soon as well.
More later.

Only two? I've been hearing even more dire predictions. :(
It's crazy how all of these historic galleries are closing one by one. The downturn of the economy and the rise of the influence of the internet is only adding to their closings. I think perhaps younger and up-coming artists are turning to the internet to display their work in their own "virtual gallery." I know a site that recently launched called www.mysoiree.net that has brought about another medium to show work as well. It's amazing how fast everything is moving!
Thanks for your post. Always like to be up-to-date on things!
