“We’ve had dinner parties, brunches, standing events, book signings, baby showers, corporate events, wine tastings — a little bit of everything,” gallery owner Anderson Smith said.

“It’s a very open space, about 4,330 square feet,” Smith explained. “There’s a VIP-type back area with more artwork and some couches.”

Your event, your way

Gallery Anderson Smith offers flexibility for your event design. While the gallery provides some basic furniture like tables and chairs, most clients opt to rent additional pieces to create their desired ambiance.

“In most cases people rent tables, chairs and high top tables,” Smith said. The gallery’s open layout allows for a variety of event formats.
