November is Food Month!
Taking Inspiration From Food, How We Share It, and Who We Share It With
Be sure to follow @thegladsuite on Instagram and message me to be added to my Close Friends List! You’ll see works created by Glad Suite Collaborative members, highlights from our in-person workshops, and more!
Food Month is more than just about food. It’s about how we enjoy food and who we enjoy it with. This month we’ll be honoring abundance and scarcity, simple pleasures, and the events that have us gathering around the table with friends and family.
This month, The Glad Suite Gallery will feature artwork from Collaborative Members, as well as from my personal collection, to inspire us as we explore our own artistic voice in the subject of FOOD!
Featured Artists will be able to display their artwork in the The Glad Suite Gallery with no commission charges for any sales made during the time they are displayed. All media welcome!
Featured Artists will have the opportunity to run a workshop of your choosing tying into the monthly themes. These workshops can be about composition or color mixing or any other technique that can be applied to the subject matter. You will be able to discuss your preferred workshop rates. Receive a credit toward your membership for new Community and Artist members who join during your featured month and attend your workshop.
Featured Artists will be able to contribute additional works for the Gallery Show at the end of the month that celebrates all this community has created. The space will be more densely filled with art and decor for this monthly celebration. Invite your friends to this social Gallery event!

Rent A Private Studio at The Glad Suite Gallery

In addition to having a dedicated creative space, these studios come with an Artist Membership to The Glad Suite Collaborative. That’s a whole bonus creative community, built-in event space for collection launches, and opportunities to run workshops and display your available art within The Glad Suite Gallery with no commission charges. Spaces are large enough to share with a friend depending on your chosen media, so you can split the cost and share the benefits. I’d love to have you join this incredible space!
