Gallery 2622 features a new artist on the 'First Friday" of every month. Our mission is to bring original art to the heART of the neighborhood of Wauwatosa. The gallery is always looking for artists, whether emerging or established, to exhibit their original artwork for one month. The "First Friday" of every month offers a new artist exhibition, with the goal of promoting and selling original work created by the artist. If you are interested in showing your work at the gallery, contact the director, John J Korom, to arrange a portfolio presentation.
