HURRICANE IRENE UPDATE: The Garnerville Arts & Industrial Center, the home of GAGA Arts Center, suffered tremendous damage as a result of Hurricane Irene. The Main Gallery at GAGA was significantly damaged when the back wall of the building collapsed under pressure from projectile debris carried by the rising flood waters of the Minisceongo Creek. Thankfully, the rest of the buildings of the historical industrial center were not seriously damaged.
Exhibitions and events planned for the fall of 2011 have been cancelled. It is our hope that we will be able to regroup and restart our programming within the 2012 calendar year. We will keep everyone updated as we, the artists and staff of the GAGA arts community, dig out, clean up, and get back to business.
Says Robin Rosenberg, President of GAGA Arts Center: “GAGA is much more than just a gallery. It is a place of ideas and possibilities; a place of inspiration where art and craftsmanship flourish. It is a community of people who share a creative bond. That is and will continue to be the base from which all else follows.”
