Abrams Claghorn Gallery believes that everyone has a unique story to tell through creative expression. In the Shop, we present items made by a diverse group of over 70 SF Bay Area local makers.
The Gallery features local artists in museum style exhibitions that change monthly. The themed shows give the artists platforms to present artwork as close to their vision as possible, unfettered by the contraints of marketabliity.

From treetops to the ocean floor, from mountains to the rich soil beneath the earth’s surface, every living thing calls the earth home. According to the dictionary, a habitat is “the natural home or environment of a plant, animal, or other organism. It provides the organisms that live there with food, water, shelter and space to survive.” Biotic (living) and abiotic (nonliving) things exist together to form a habitat, where flora and fauna live side by side in a symbiotic effort to survive.
