Frequently Asked Questions
These are the questions we got asked most often; let us know if we missed something!
-
We’re in the gallery Thursday to Monday, 12-6. We do take the occasional vacation, and the gallery is closed for most of January. Our schedule is on the What’s Coming Up page of the website.
-
Everyone’s favorite topic! There is lots of metered street parking available in the neighborhood. (Hot tip: sometimes it’s easier to park just on the other side of Van Ness.) There is also a lot on Polk just north of Broadway (by Walgreens) and several garages on Sacramento between Polk and Van Ness.
-
Definitely! Both the MUNI 12 and 27 lines stop on Pacific a couple of doors down from the gallery. The 49 stops nearby on Van Ness, the 19 is close by on Polk, and the 1 California is only a few blocks away.
-
Yes, we ship all over! If you want to know the shipping costs for a piece, just give us a call or send us a note with the artwork you’re interested in and your mailing address. We’ll get back to you asap.
-
You can purchase small pieces directly from our website (check out the tiny and tiny all the time pages). To purchase other pieces, just give us a ring or send us a note and we’ll get right back to you.
-
Our website has three main sections, Shows and Artists and tiny. For the Shows, we try to include images of every piece in a show on the website, and we keep these galleries intact as a record of the show. If you’re looking at work from a past show, you are seeing a record of that show, including pieces that have sold. On the Artists pages, on the other hand, we try hard to make sure that artwork displayed is available to purchase. (The Artist pages are basically an online inventory of some of the gallery’s most popular artists.) And the tiny pages include pieces you can purchase right on the website.
-
You can purchase small pieces from the tiny show and tiny all the time directly from the website. We keep an online inventory of available work from the gallery’s most popular artists on the Artists page. If you have any questions about whether a piece is available, just contact us.
-
All sales are final, but we will do whatever we can to help you make sure that you’re going to love the piece you’re getting. If you need additional photos, measurements, etc., just let us know.
-
Nowadays a lot of new artists find us, but we also visit shows and open studios, and do online research. Best of all, many of our artists refer their friends, colleagues and students.

We only show work from artists living in the San Francisco Bay Area. If that’s you, send us a note and let us know you’re a local artist and we’ll email you our submission info.
