Gallery Owner Marcia Hart invites artists to exhibit their work in a clean residential setting and celebrate with friends and family. The purpose of the gallery is to bring fine art and social interaction together in a setting where relationships and artistic exploration take precedence over commercial interests. We do not represent any artists.
The Gallery started organically in 2009 after installing an ad hoc show in a big empty room. The effect of fine contemporary work in an historic 1870’s rowhouse inspired a party. We did it again and again, four to six times a year. Click here to see the Archive of exhibitions and events we’ve hosted, including some banquets and other food events.
In 2014 the basement Workshop became part of Project 1628 with a new focus on making furniture to solve specific functional and aesthetic requirements in the house, including some in reponse to unique needs of an occasional gallery.
Marcia Hart is an entrepreneur, architect, and furniture maker. After a table saw accident in 2020 messed up her hand, she co-founded Djit Medtech to make joint replacement for hands as routine and reliable as a hip or knee replacement.
Her old day job is Workplace1080, a specialty practice in workplace design consulting for developers, brokers and tenants.
Project1628 Workshop features furniture and furnishings fabricated onsite in wood, steel, and glass.
