Gallery Upgrades Plus Good And Evil Exhibition

What a fabulous year 2024 has been! We opened our doors in July for our first group show, Ephemeral. With over fifty artists and over 100 artworks it was a wonderful, albeit large, debut! This was followed by two more group shows and four solo exhibits, each one making us incredibly proud to do what we do. September saw a new look for the gallery with the addition of five gallery walls allowing even more space to show the art we love. 
We saw our dreams come true this year; to open a business as a couple is something we had long imagined but weren’t sure it would ever be possible. Thank you to the artists who contributed their hearts and souls to every piece- we couldn’t do this without you. And a big thank you also to the collectors, visitors, and social media followers who liked, shared, and appreciated our posts. 
We already can’t wait to come back next year! On February 21st our doors will open once again for three exciting exhibits: Roots, our fourth group show, a solo from local artist Rhea O’Neill, and a solo from Australian artist Tammy Whitworth! Roots hopes to give a visual journey through the connections we have to nature and the shared experiences we have as human beings. Both Rhea’s and Tammy’s solos will give a unique insight into the world around us. From what we’ve seen so far, it’s going to be a spectacular opening night! 
So mark your calendars for Friday, February 21st from 5-9pm and be sure to join us for celebratory beverages and great art- and great conversation. We hope you all have a wonderful holiday season and a safe new year! Thank you for making 2024 such a special one! 

Hi everyone! So by now you may know we have been making a number of changes to our look at the gallery. We’re so excited to reveal them to you, which we will do next week!

We love the 19th century aesthetic at Nanny Goat. Our exposed redwood beams and old stone. Not to mention the dated initials and spray painted messages that speak out from over a hundred years ago. It is why we chose this location on Water St in Old Downtown Petaluma.

However, we had always thought a touch of modern would make for a great look, balancing with the antiquated appeal. These walls, pictured here, will be finished and installed (and covered in art) for our next opening night on September 20th so stay tuned!

Coming in just two weeks we will welcome 37 artists to Nanny Goat Gallery for our second group exhibition, Good and Evil!

This is going to be a phenomenal show and we can’t wait to show you! Alongside the haunting Good and Evil will be two joint solo shows from Taryn Riley and Heidi Lustig. See last weeks blog for more details on the two solos.

Please join us for opening night in Old Downtown Petaluma on the Petaluma River. Last opening night saw a great turnout and we’re hoping to beat it! We will be serving beer, wine, and sparkles as well as as a couple different non-alcoholic beverages. We recommend having dinner at one of the fabulous wine country dining establishments in town and walking over to the gallery afterwards to come see the shows. You couldn’t plan a nicer evening. We hope to see you there! Oh, and check back next week for updates on the new look at the gallery!
