WHAT’S HAPPENING:
Join us for an fun event filled with art and friends!

Nave 155 is an art sale to support the Nave Gallery. All artwork will be priced at $155, with proceeds benefiting the Nave and its programming.

Doors open at 1:00 pm. And then…you dash in and grab the ticket for the item that you want, and we’ll help you with your beautiful new purchase. If you want a chance to grab a coveted piece, we recommend that you arrive early, but not before noon. Our gallery is inside of a church that will be hosting services until then. A rowdy art bunch may be distracting!

ABOUT THE NAVE:
The Nave is an incredibly active arts organization in Somerville, producing exhibitions at the Nave Gallery (Teele Square) and Nave Annex (Davis Square), in addition to numerous public art projects and festivals. In the last four years alone, we have shown nearly 90 high-quality exhibitions between the two galleries.

As a very small volunteer-run organization, this breakneck speed has been exciting, yet ultimately unsustainable, and the Nave has decided to slow our pace in 2017 so that we can focus on building a sustainable arts organization. This necessary slow down, while vital to ensure that we continue to exist, means that we will experience a gap in operating revenue. Funds raised from Nave 155 will help us remain open while we strategically plan for a stronger future.
