Clare Gallery

God has endowed them with skill to execute all types of work: engraving, embroidering, the making of variegated cloth of violet, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen thread, weaving, and all other arts and crafts. ~ Exodus 35:35 NAB

The Clare Gallery is a not-for-profit professional exhibition gallery located in the Franciscan Center for Urban Ministry. Clare Gallery exhibits, receptions, and artist lectures are free and open to the public.

The Clare Gallery Committee promotes the arts through its exhibits and educational programs, which focus on world religious, interfaith, and social justice theme, either on a global or local level.

Committee members promote the Gallery by generating written and visual publicity materials; setting up and taking down exhibits; providing hospitality at receptions; coordinating scheduling with other parish ministries; researching art and artists for exhibits; and coordinating the Gallery’s finances and fundraising opportunities.
