Gallery 53 On Rocky Neck

Specialties

Gallery 53 on Rocky Neck is a juried gallery run by members of the Rocky Neck Art Colony. Located in a historic 19th century building, the gallery features an original and distinctive collection of fine arts and crafts. Gallery 53 exhibits and sells the work of 33 artists that are primarily from Cape Ann. Gallery 53 has its home between the wonderful Studio and Rudder restaurants at 53 Rocky Neck Avenue. It functions like a co-operative, in which every member shares in the gallery-operation duties - but unlike a co-operative, the members do not share in the expenses, profits, or losses. The Rocky Neck Art Colony Galleries (the for-profit branch of non-profit RNAC) pays expenses, collects rent from artists, and takes a commission on artwork sold.
