-  Jennifer Perlmutter with Jennifer Perlmutter Gallery

Picture
Jennifer Perlmutter Gallery opened to engage more with the public, to empower other artists, and to elevate the conversation about art in this region. Great art speaks truths we can all understand, and shares beauty that enriches our lives. It’s transformative and healing. And I want to share that. The creative process in the studio is carried into the gallery in this unique venue. Ultimately, this gallery is a place of connection and opportunity. My mission is to share compelling fine art that touches and inspires you.   http://jenniferperlmuttergallery.com
