  Worst gallery experience I've ever had!!! I'm an Artist and looking for new galleries to feature my work. The art selections are decent and displayed nicely. Some are over-priced. From there, it goes downhill simply because of customer service and the gallery owner. She wasn't very friendly when I walked in the door; seemed to be more like I was bothering her, but she did acknowledge me. It was 10:30am and there were no other people in the gallery at the time. After looking around a bit, I asked if they are taking any new artists and was asked what I do.....I could see that there were similar art pieces as to what I do, but my style is very unique and different, so I thought I would at least ask. Once I told her what my art is, her tone of voice suddenly changed, abruptly telling me... absolutley not and that I needed to leave! I was in shock.....a simple question of asking if they are taking new artists and she's demanding I leave her gallery! I even said.....you are throwing me out the door??!!! and she said nothing and no longer spoke to me! What ever happened to being kind and showing top notch customer service....a simple, no thank you, we are full in that area or no, I am sorry, would have done the job, but to demand that I leave...... I can't imagine why she is still in business with that type of service! Once back at my car, I looked up the Google reviews and saw that I am not the only one she's asked to leave. Sad! What could have been a lovely time looking at art and admiring the artists work, turned into a terrible experience!! Now, for my work, I see it as a blessing because if that's how they treat strangers off the street, how do they treat the artists they represent??!!! I will tell every artist I know to stay clear of this gallery! Terrible experience!!! Sad!
