After five years of exhibits, Somerville\u2019s Nave Annex gallery will be closing at the end of this month, writes Nave Galleries Director Susan Berstler<\/a> (pictured above at the gallery). In addition to the 53 Chester St. Annex in Davis Square, the gallery operates a second venue, its original location. She says she plans to continue to \u201cprogram the Nave Gallery in Teele Square throughout 2018.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a message posted to the gallery\u2019s website today, Berstler writes: \u201cIt is with mixed feelings that we announce that we will close the Nave Annex in Davis Square at the end of January. Back in 2013, we had no intention of opening an additional space. But, like all good things, an unexpected opportunity came up and we decided to go for it. We told ourselves that it would be just be special projects space. Our heads said that we would probably only be there for six months. Our hearts wished for a least a year. January 25 will mark our five-year anniversary.\u201d<\/p>\n

The original Nave Gallery at 155 Powderhouse Boulevard in Teele Square opened in May 2004. In addition to programming that space, Berstler writes that she plans to \u201ctake time out and reorganize, create a formal board, file for 501c3 \u2026 [and] continue to advocate for accessible visual arts space in Somerville.\u201d<\/p>\n

[Note: I\u2019ve exhibited my own art at both Nave locations and, with Berstler, co-curated an exhibit at the Annex last year.]<\/p>\n
