contemporary fine art gallery located in Austin, tX ON east 11TH STREET
We have some exciting news to share with you!
Lydia Street Gallery will be slowly but surely morphing into a new creative and cultural venture. This new enterprise will simply be called 'Lydia'. There was once a King Lydia, an ancient place called Lydia, a Lydian people, and a Lydian language. As well, the name Lydia has a long and noble lineage. The original gallery took its name from its current location on Lydia Street here in Austin (at the intersection of Lydia and Juniper).
In fact, Lydia is a name found in the bible and tells a story of an enterprising woman by this name who converted to Christianity and provided one of the very first Christian churches in what is now considered Europe. However, before this new church was created Lydia apparently provided her own house as a meeting place for these earliest Christian travelers.
With that story in mind as an inspiration, the new venture is intended to create a more welcoming and home-like atmosphere in which to visit and discover new and evolving talents from across the region and country - while adding more space to allow for more art to be exhibited. The gallery will offer a new type of membership community, with an eye on creating a new and dynamic venue for the creative arts, as well as a meeting place for those interested in supporting the fine arts.
The Gallery will begin transitioning further into its new exciting form in the coming months. We are not reinventing the wheel over here..... just making it more round! If you'd like to receive updates and further information on our new enterprise and the various membership opportunities available, simply add your name to our email list from the gallery website.
