Welancora Gallery is an art gallery in the Bedford–Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, New York that specializes in contemporary art. [1] [2] [3]
History
In 2002, Welancora Gallery was founded by Ivy N. Jones.[4] The gallery is housed in a 19th-century townhouse in the Bedford–Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, New York.[5]
Welancora Gallery is one of a handful of Black women-owned galleries in New York City.[6] The gallery focuses on an intergenerational pairing of artists with a particular interest in older artists of color, including sculptor Helen Evans Ramsaran and abstract painter Carl E. Hazlewood.[7][8][9][5][10][11] From time to time, the gallery creates space in its schedule for guest curators to organize exhibitions.
