Open Eye Gallery is a unique gallery that is focused on photography and regularly hosts exhibitions, festivals, publications, collaborative projects and more. Since 1977, the gallery has provided photographers with a space to share their work, as these artists had been excluded from traditional art galleries well into the '70s and '80s. The gallery is intent on being accessible to everyone as well as supporting new and emerging artists.
See Open Eye Gallery’s site for past and current exhibits and check out their blog, which provides timely commentary on photography and its happenings as an industry, as well as offering interviews with emerging artists.

Highlights of the Open-Eye Gallery
Open Eye Gallery hosts a variety of exhibits and events and partners on various projects with other community groups. Past exhibits have included installations by LGBTQIA artists, a series entitled 'The Lives We Lead', which chronicled a bit of how COVID and the Black Lives Matter movement impacted lives in 2020, and 'Fast Forward: Women in Photography', which showcased emerging Chinese women photographers.
Live online talks and discussions are hosted periodically on forums such as Twitch and Zoom, and the gallery offers a wealth of information and images on its website, including virtual reality exhibits.
