The gallery director had a vision for the space and she continues to express it with every show, even while beginning with minimal resources. The gallery has become a focus around the formation of community, building a following that includes not only artists, but a diverse public including political leaders, etc. Thank you, Sand T! - Joanna L. Kao, Massachusetts, 2007.
