SOFT OPENING

April 9 - 10, 2016

ATELIER NEWPORT will celebrate its Soft Opening on Saturday, April 9th and Sunday, April 10th.  A champagne reception will be held each day from 2:00 to 5:00PM, at the newly renovated gallery, located at 200 Bellevue Ave, along the historic International Tennis Hall of Fame.

Stripping away the conventional white cube, ATELIER NEWPORT has created a sanctuary, and oasis for an eclectic mix of 30 emerging and mid-career artists who have a deep connection to Newport. 

Lee Valentini, President, and Creative Director, Bobbie Lemmons, who envisioned the project, felt the rich history of the International Tennis Hall of Fame would only enhance the atelier setting, and support the gallery's mission of representing local, national and international living artists.
