About Us
Midnight Art Gallery is a woman-owned contemporary art space devoted to the process behind the work as much as the work itself. We believe that every piece begins long before it reaches the wall—in the rituals, gestures, and practices that artists return to again and again. Our collection celebrates makers who approach art as a way of moving through the world: attentive, curious, and intuitive.
Representing both national and international artists—over 90% of whom are female-identified—we champion voices who create with intention. Each piece we showcase carries the imprint of a journey defined by repetition, experiments, and ritual. We invite collectors to connect not only with the finished artwork but with the story of its becoming.
Geared toward the modern collector, Midnight Art Gallery offers residential and commercial art consulting, a designer trade program, and professional installation. Whether you're discovering a new artist or building a long-term collection, we’re here to guide and support your experience thoughtfully.
For inquiries, collaborations, or conversations, reach out anytime at hello@midnightartgallery.com.
We’d love to hear from you.
