  • "Hillsborough Gallery of Arts has had over 60 artist member/owners. 15,000 visitors crossed our threshold in 2024 and we’ve sold nearly four million dollars worth of local art since our inception. The infrastructure of community art walks and arts events has built up around us. I’ve found inspiration and solace, friendship and professional growth in this organization. In other words, I stumbled on this visual artist’s version of heaven.

  • "I joined just as I was beginning to sell my work. I had plenty of enthusiasm, but little understanding of what it meant to be a professional, working artist. Being part of this artist-owned gallery has helped me grow tremendously. I am surrounded by artists who generously share their experience and insight. I have learned how to speak about my work with greater confidence, how to approach pricing in a practical way, and how to navigate the business side of art while still protecting the heart of why I create. Seeing my work on the walls encourages me to refine my style and stay committed to my practice. Feedback from both fellow artists and visitors helps me better understand how my work resonates'"

    —Ryann Carey

  • "When I first interviewed at HGA, not too long ago, I noticed an exuberant collective of creative energy, where every artist has a stake in our shared success. For me, this shared community and sense of purpose has been a powerful catalyst. As a woodturner, seeing the exceptional art at HGA has pushed me to be more disciplined and brave, encouraging me to 'push the envelope' with larger, more technically demanding forms in green wood.

  • "Joining the Hillsborough Gallery of Arts changed everything for me. This artist-owned space brought me into a warm circle of fellow creators and art lovers who share the same fire. It’s given me real inspiration, steady support, and a deeper sense of purpose in my work."
