Help Us Rebuild Art of Heart Gallery

Gofundme project video by Heart of Art Gallery, 2015

Hello, we are Heart of Art (Gallery) and in 2012, the only all women run DIY art gallery in Los Angeles was born. Heart of Art’s Gallery is a safe space that nurtures a community who embraces the femininity and loving nature that gives these beautiful souls a voice and healing through art, workshops, and performances.

On the evening of August 29th the Gallery was attacked. Two men from the surrounding neighborhood who had just harassed some of the attendees became aggressive and violent towards the crowd as well as the establishment. We ushered all our guests inside and barricaded the doors with no hesitation. The police were called however during that wait for them to get here, we felt the walls shaking as they kicked the doors and destroyed the art outside.

This incident was the last of present attacks on the space over the past several years and it has forced us to finally make the tough decision to close down and relocate. Please help us rebuild Art of Heart Gallery by sharing our gofundme page or donate.
