Other artists soon followed and now the gallery is the largest and oldest in Portland representing 65 contemporary artists. The space is concieved and designed by Tommer Gonser who, along with Maria Gonser, manages this space. The gallery's goal is to exhibit unique works by gallery artists, showcasing their works to collectors with changing monthly exhibits in both galleries.
