A HAPPY NEW YEAR 2020! Our Business Hour Changes

IMG_1744

2020 is coming very soon!

Thank you very much for all visit to AG Gallery throughout the year 2019. If you made it to any of our exhibitions in 2019, we very appreciate because that is one of the biggest supports and joy for us to curate exhibitions at our gallery.

We believe being an art collector is not something special today that only limited people can do, in a way that we have access to art and artists from many different ways, such as  SNS and online stores, that we did not have before. We believe becoming an art collector, however, is something special that adds fruitful qualities to our everyday life.

AG Gallery is excited for the new year to present new artworks from our gallery artists, as well as to introduce new artists to you all. We hope our gallery will continuously serve as a place to connect artists to our visitors in 2020 even more than 2019.

ag schedule dec jan

Schedule changes for coming weeks:
We are open on December 31 from 12PM – 6pm and also open on January 1, 2020 from 1PM – 7PM. For January, we will be closed on Tuesdays, please make sure to visit us on other days.

Happy New Year and the Best Wishes from About Glamour+ AG Gallery!
