About the Event

Join us on this specially designed 3 hour gallery tour in New York City’s Chelsea art scene. Led by Claudia Sohrens.*

We will have comments and conversations, sometimes joined by a gallery representative, about the images and current trends. The galleries will be visited to show the diversity of the new season’s shows. Note, this is not a formal structured workshop or seminar but rather a format to spark thinking for new creative ideas and encourage dialogue.

This is limited to 16 people due to the size of many galleries. and ability for all to see and hear comments. At the end of the formal tour some may want to visit other galleries and continue the conversation.

Fee required prior to event.
