We wouldn't be here without you!
Supporting Non-Profits
2020 unleashed terror and uncertainty for all businesses.
We managed, with YOUR help, to keep afloat and thrive even! However, our local partners and community spaces are still in uncharted waters and could use some additional funds. We want to give back to the people who've supported our community in the arts and ultimately our creative business because of their measured efforts.
Starting April 1st and through the rest of our anniversary month we're donating a portion of art sales to the organization of your choice:

To commemorate Gilded Pear’s 10th anniversary, the summer exhibition will be showcasing artworks made by gallery staff artists! Gilded Pear Gallery is thrilled be able to celebrate in person after gatherings had come to a halt due to the pandemic. Join in on the fun for the Party and Reception, July 16th, 5:00-7:30pm CST. Please RSVP! *Event details regarding COVID-19 below.
The exhibit features drawings, paintings, and sculptures by Linda Ge, Suzy McGrane-Hop and Lauren Tucci. While the title of the exhibit references the popular TV show “The Golden Girls” the artworks on display pay little homage to the sitcom giant (though the ‘Girls’ themselves unite the artists).
