About:
Gallery Josephine is a Resource:Art exhibition project located at The Show, a new event space inside the beautifully restored Shea’s Theater

Press Release:
Resource:Art (R:A), is a fine art consulting firm founded by Buffalo-based gallerists Elisabeth Samuels and Emily Tucker in 2014. The firm’s mission is to expand the visibility of regional artists' work, while taking art viewing outside the traditional “white box” gallery. When R:A was approached by The founders of The Show at Shea’s Seneca to occupy a portion of the new event center with curated rotating exhibits, they were thrilled by the opportunity. “Much like our gallery project Raft of Sanity on Buffalo’s West Side we feel especially excited to be part of a neighborhood on the rise,” Emily Tucker said. The Seneca Street gallery space will be dubbed Gallery Josephine in honor of the wife of the famed former theater’s creator Michael Shea. Josephine was by Shea’s side through good times and bad as he built major theaters in the WNY area and beyond.

The gallery is in good company located next door to businesses Public Espresso, Bottle Rocket Beer, and Cookies and Cream, all of whom recently opened their doors on Seneca Street. The grand opening of Gallery Josephine will take place on Thursday April 27 from 6:00–8:00 pm and is open to the public. Visitors will have a chance to view gorgeous renovations to the space along with the gallery’s inaugural exhibition all while enjoying refreshments and a cash bar. For more information contact Emily Tucker at info@resourceartny.com or 716.249.1320.
