Seeing Red
This juried photo show will be based on the color RED.
What does the color red mean to you? It is a primary color at one extreme end of the visible spectrum and can represent many different things to different people. Is it a state of extreme passion, anger, excitement or arousal? Does it signify happiness and good luck? Is it a Valentine heart or does it refer to leftist Communism?
Show us what this color means to you.
Email us for the prospectus. Entries due by December 20.
January 20 - March 9, 2018
Art of Resistance
March 24 - May 11, 2018

Do you make political art? Please email images (up to 4) to us for consideration.
ABOUT GRAY LOFT GALLERY
Gray Loft Gallery - voted "Best Art Gallery" two years in a row - 2016 & 2017 - in the Oakland Magazine Readers' Choice Award - has promoted the rich art culture of Jingletown and the greater Bay Area for 5 years. The gallery has been referred to as a hidden gem in Jingletown, and noted by Kenneth Baker, former SF Chronicle Art Critic, in his Visual Arts Don’t Miss Column as “…A space gaining prominence in the Bay Area…” The mission of the gallery is to provide exhibition opportunities for artists in a setting that is an alternative to the traditional gallery model. We hope to inspire, engage and celebrate artists in our community and beyond. We acknowledge the achievements of emerging, mid-career and established artists – with an emphasis on those who live and work in the Bay Area – in a non-traditional art space. A number of artists began their art career at Gray Loft Gallery.
“I have always enjoyed this gallery, superb atmosphere and lighting. The polished and worn hardwood floors creek slightly in places as you climb to the third floor, providing a granular and unique, organic aesthetic. This is a do-not-miss venue in the East Bay.” – Facebook Review
is a proud member of the Oakland Art Murmur, Jingletown Arts and Business Association and Oakland Grown.
Hours: Saturdays 1:00 - 5:00 and by appointment
