In 1992, St. Clair Street was virtually abandoned, now it is a thriving arts/entertainment zone and "Arts Hotspot" in the downtown landscape. 20 North Gallery was the pioneer in this location—and was so successful at attracting people who had never been downtown before—that their section of downtown became the home of the new stadium, the new arena, restaurants, shops and other destination points in the Toledo community. 20 North Gallery is now the oldest, independent gallery in Toledo. The exhibit’s 20 participating artists include: Michael Sheets, the very first artist to exhibit at 20 North Gallery with his solo exhibit, “Michael Sheets: Absolute Ohio” ; Leslie Adams; Kimberly Arden; Mike Basista; Aaron S. Bivins; Michelle Carlson; Wil Clay; Steven Conine; Joe Ann Cousino; Adam Grant; Peggy Grant; Philip Hazard; Skot Horn; Tom McGlauchlin; In addition to his exhibited work, Eichenberg will be unveiling a new painting at the May 25th Gala Anniversary Reception. 20 North Gallery is proud to be Eichenberg’s North American representative for commissioned portraiture— 20 North Gallery, exhibiting artists and Art Director Peggy Grant, will be welcoming friends and collectors at the free Gala Anniversary Reception on Friday, May 25th, from 6 - 9p.m. Reception attendees can celebrate the debut of 20 North Gallery’s 20th season by enjoying light refreshments, hors d’ oeuvres, music, reminiscences of past exhibits and conversations highlighting the future plans of the gallery and these distinguished artists.
