About the Gallery
Photo West Gallery is an exhibition space that offers Philadelphia area photographers an opportunity to engage diverse audiences by showing their work in a salon like setting. Its openings, the second Friday of each month, coincide with University City's Left of Center program. Exhibitions are intended to encourage lively and concentrated interactions where poets and performing artists are part of the mix to make photo openings a place where art boundaries are crossed. Teachers at local high schools are invited to bring their students on 2nd Fridays to meet the exhibiting artists and learn more about the works on display.
