SoMo Galleries

SoMo Galleries was an art gallery located on the second floor of the building at 2229 1st Avenue South (South of Morris Avenue). The gallery opened in May 1989 as a venue for new and established artists to exhibit and experiment with new methods and materials. It was owned by Doug Moore.

For the inaugural exhibition by the Flood and Mystic Chamber Salon, SoMo Galleries was physically and symbolically linked to Space One Eleven with surveyors tape and surprise objects along sidewalks and above streets to connect the two galleries and provide a path for gallery patrons to follow.
