The Abrams Claghorn Membership Program
Joining the Abrams Claghorn Membership Program helps support local artists and all of the work the gallery does with them.
We have just begun to work on brand new workshop programming. This will include various hands-on craft and art workshops, as well as art movie nights and poetry readings.
We need your help to get this program off the ground. With out funding, it will be difficult to do what we have to do to hire instructors, invest in materials and other infrastructure. Please join as a member, not only to get discounts on future workshops and purchases, but to help support the local artist community.
Since opening in 2015, Abrams Claghorn Gallery has brought artwork and handmade items from over 80 Bay Area makers to the community through our store. In our exhibition space, and satellite shows, we have shown work by more than 200 local emerging artists. Serving both artists and art lovers alike, our monthly receptions and summer fairs connect our creative community with a large, diverse audience while our critique nights and workshops allow artists of all levels develop and refine their professional skills. We also work actively with the Solano Avenue Association to help our neighborhood’s businesses and residents thrive.
Now in our eighth year, we continue our goal of creating a range of programming that reflects the needs of our community and, since our inception, we have heard from our community how valuable Abrams Claghorn Gallery is to the culture of Albany and the broader East Bay… but we can’t survive on verbal support alone!
In order to keep doing what we do, we need your financial support. You can now support us in an easy and tangible way through our Membership Program. Joining the Abrams Claghorn Membership Program will put you in direct contact with our roster of artists and all of the work the Gallery does with them. See below for the benefits you can enjoy at each level.
Note that we also welcome and deeply appreciate donations of any size, anytime. Please contact us if you would like to purchase a membership for a custom amount. Thank you!
