Gallery Route One

Gallery Route One is a premier nonprofit art organization based in Point Reyes Station serving West Marin with exhibitions and community outreach programs for 42 years. It provides exhibition opportunities to area artists who are members of the Exhibition Program, showcasing artists from the Northern CA region whose work represents themes of the environment, social justice, and immigration, and offers a Fellowship to two young artists to train with our member artists for two years. Gallery Route One also sends working artists into Marin County schools to provide workshops to students and provide a special program called the Latino Photography Project, where Spanish speakers learn photography skills and have exhibition opportunities.

In April, Gallery Route One will offer a three-artist reception on Saturday, April 18, from 3 to 5 PM at 11101 Hwy One in Point Reyes Station:

GRO Gallery Artist EA Zappa presents the exhibition "In the Land's Memory - Some Places Remember Us". It is a lively show of paintings and sculptural pieces inspired by the artist's love of Alaska, its landscapes, people, wildlife, and also the quiet relationships that shape Alaskan life. Zappa is a Northern California painter and visual storyteller, and his work is realistic, recording visual images of places and people. He has worked for decades on themes of land, memory, and attention through painting, sculpture, and paper-based construction. This exhibition resonates with color and light, serving as a collective expression of the artist's memories of wilderness and wildlife, as well as his thoughts about the enduring dialogue between humans and the natural world.

Visiting Artist Arminée Chahbazian presents "Biggest Little Worlds", paintings that "award the seldom-seen egg with larger-than-life planetary presence." The exhibition is a series of oil and encaustic paintings on canvas and wood panels of varying scales.
