The studio/show space vibe of Gallery 300 has found a new home in The Barlow, a 12.5-acre culinary and arts center in Sebastopol, in western Sonoma County.
A venue for painters, a milner, and other artisans, the gallery displays contemporary work focusing mostly on mixed media paintings, but also featuring hats, laser cut lights, jewelry, and other handmade wearables.
Gallery 300 and its artists were part of the founding of the South A Street Arts District (SOFA) in downtown Santa Rosa. The gallery has evolved into a participant in international art fairs in Miami alongside Art Basel.
The opening exhibit in The Barlow space displays works from Jennifer Hirschfield, Terry Sauve, Lisa Thorpe, Amy Smith, Alejandro Salazar, and Ron Macken.

Stepping down after 40 years of presenting art, Plamann curated this final show, which highlights work by 41 different visual artists. Founded in 2005, Hammerfriar Art Gallery and Framing Services exhibits contemporary art with a vision. An important part of Sonoma County’s visual arts community, Hammerfriar represents both established and emerging artists from the greater San Francisco Bay Area and beyond.
Business partners Leys and Young took ownership of Hammerfriar in August 2017; together they provide more than 30 years of experience in museum-quality framing and art preservation. Leys learned her craft by apprenticing with Young, who is well known in the art preservation world for his technical expertise, design skills, and his study of innovative techniques.
