Last spring, was in this lovely clothing store, the owner charming but I thought… this space would be a fabulous art gallery. Now I was not looking to open an art gallery anytime soon as my passion now is art making and showing.

The space, I knew, could be something special. Last week driving through Spring Lake I saw the change. Kelly McKenna Gallery.

It is stunning! Last night I went to their spring opening - group of artist collections. The gallery magnificent! The art stunning and more than that. The owner, Caitlin and Megan, her specialist, were just so open and approachable sharing insights about art.

I love going to galleries, always have, many in many different places and cities. Usually for me it is kind of a solo expereince where I look art, occasionally talk with the gallery representative.

Last night we talked about the artist who works were available, the extensive background the curator, experiences working in New York art galleries and as an art appraisers. It was friendly and wonderful to meet them and the other guests at the opening. It was the most conversation I ever had in an art gallery!

The space is beautiful, there is a positive vibe. Each month is a book club discussion about a book involving art! So if you have a chance, just stop in, see the art and say hello.
