Sobobo Art Gallery is a unique and yet sublime space that one must see. In it’s true sense, it is a gallery, however, displays art pieces in a way one could only imagine. When you take a walk in the woods and stop to look and listen one always takes the time to spot the beauty in every nook and cranny; that is Sobobo. In the hollows of each display holds a piece of art that shines, boasting its individual style and uniqueness. Each artist and artisan has over 50 years combined experience and talent. There are those who have had showings in galleries; locally, in the Firehouse Gallery, Cummings Art Gallery in New London, and as far south as Washington DC and internationally in Poland, German, Turkey. Their portfolios speak for themselves.
The owner, had a vision of a gallery that was susceptible to everyone from all walks of life and not catering to just a certain few. She wanted to make sure that everyone would enjoy the space and perhaps purchase an art piece to take part of the gallery home with them. Her mission was to make sure that the gallery was inviting and welcoming, creating a relaxing atmosphere that “you know what, it is okay to take my time to look and not be rushed”, so to speak “stop and smell the roses.” She also wanted to make sure that each time a visitor walked through that door, he or she would find something they missed before; making each visit a new experience, a quality that no other gallery offers and a welcoming that honors everyone who enters -- one of respect towards each, the artist/artisan and the client.
Sobobo is a treasure trove of art! Keep on looking for there is something new that will always seem to appear out of the blue.
