Paul and Dina are truly warm and wonderful people. Paul is an incredibly talented artist who wants…read moreto teach, to share his knowledge and wants to "pay it forward". In just a few months of classes, how I think and how I see my art has been transformed and I am more confident. Students are challenged and encouraged with a firm yet light touch as Paul educates, encourages and elevates the inner artist in all of us. Paul is a master and I am fortunate to be one of his students.

The clean, open design creates a really effective exhibit space but also allows for a flow for the crowds that gather for special events held here. Neatly tucked away from busy Florida Avenue, the building can be easily missed but just look for the steady stream of people who show up for whatever may be happening within its walls. A recent display of Theo Wujcik's work (he is a master painter and printer who calls Tampa home) placed large scale paintings on two walls and small, delicate drawings opposite the big colorful canvases. An artist friend who accompanied me to the opening night of Wujik's exhibition seemed as enchanted with the space as she was with the work displayed which tells me art is definitely at home here.

They do occasional art shows/events - last night was a conceptual event with mixed cassette tapes and individually printed tee shirts as the stars. Nicely retro yet with a definite today set of aesthetic sensibilities. Reminds me a lot of Covivant Gallery that used to be just a couple of blocks away. Less of a serious gallery for sure, but the vibe, the artists involved, the space - all the type of arts scene space that makes me very happy. Instant fan.

I had been to HCC plenty of times before and did not know this existed until learning about the special exhibit for the Tampa Bay Black Heritage Festival. Covid 19 procedures - Access is free, but you have to make an appointment online as they are taking care to limit capacity. The appointment system is easy to navigate. I even cancelled and rescheduled my original appointment due to a conflict and the process was easy. You have to wear a mask and others on campus are wearing masks. They have signs navigating you where to find the gallery on campus but thankfully a friendly campus officer asked if I needed help. He directed me exactly where to go and saved me the trouble of getting lost on my own. My appointment was on a Thursday evening as this is the day with the latest hours. My appointment started on time. The employee helping me was friendly and gave me space as I looked around. I was the only one there so it felt like having my own private showing which was cool. It is a very small gallery inside the school's library. It has a space for special exhibits on one floor and then a main gallery on the floor up. I definitely look forward to going back for other special exhibits.

In addition to featuring hard-to-find art, Gallery 221 located at the Hillsborough County Community College Dale Mabry Highway campus is quite simply a bit hard to find. But those willing to make the effort will be well rewarded for finally finding a parking spot, figuring out which cluster of buildings it's housed in and making the trek through the campus to the second floor location. There is also a satellite exhibition area of sorts one floor above the gallery that showcases works be different artists that those highlighted in the main exhibition space. Space may be minimal but curators manage to make the most of the display area by featuring really interesting works of art and installing it in creative ways. Based on the grounds of the bustling Hillsborough Community College Campus there is always activity that balances well with the creative energy exhibited here. The only drawback to the campus connection is that fact that the gallery remains dark during extended holiday breaks when classes are suspended. The current exhibit "Sacred Folk" features wonderful, whimsical selections of folk art through June 21 but watch out for summer hours when the gallery is closed on Fridays.
