119 Gallery

About me:

Founded in 1992, 911 Gallery first opened its doors at 911 E Main Street in Indianapolis, IN. It gained worldwide recognition in 1994 when it became one of the first art galleries to exhibit artwork on the World Wide Web. Its exhibits have been published in print media including ARTnews, The New York Times, The Washington Post, Art New England, The Boston Globe, and Lowell Sun.

911 Gallery moved to Fort Point Channel in Boston, MA, in 1996, where it hosted exhibits and participated in Open Studios. In 1997 the gallery co-coordinated a digital printmaking workshop at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, DC , and joined the steering committee of the Boston Cyberarts Festival, for which it has produced more than a dozen exhibitions over four festivals.

In July 2005 the gallery opened in Lowell. 119 Gallery, renamed for its new address at 119 Chelmsford Street, is less than a mile from the downtown Lowell. The gallery is divided into a storefront cyber café and office, and main gallery. In its first year, the gallery hosted six exhibits, six workshops, several special events, several ongoing series, and dozens of music, dance and video performances.

The mission of 119 Gallery is to expand our community's vision of creative possibilities through exposure to contemporary and new media art, innovative ideas and cutting-edge techniques. The gallery offers a rich and diverse program of exhibitions, performances and community-based arts services; and welcomes people of all ages, backgrounds and means to explore, engage, and experience new, innovative art.

911 Electronic Media Arts Inc dba 119 Gallery is a 501(c)(3) educational corporation. We look forward to partnering and collaborating with local, national, and international artists and organizations.
