This exhibition was drawn together to celebrate this place, the nexus and driving force behind Chandler Gallery. Chandler Gallery begins because of a space. Occupying the location that was previously and iconically Seager Gray Gallery, Chandler Gallery came to be through the forward thinking of Donna Seager and Suzanne Gray. Knowing the magic of their space, and the loss the community would feel upon their closing, they sought someone who could carry their vision forward. Committed to keeping the space a place for contemporary arts and the Mill Valley community, Seager and Gray approached Chandler Simpson, a former director of Maya Frodeman Gallery, previously Tayloe Piggott Gallery in Jackson, Wyoming, living in the Bay Area.
