Drawing Room SF

The Drawing Room is an art studio and gallery, nestled on 23rd Street between and Mission and Capp Streets. In hope to strengthen and connect the local art community, the Drawing Room fosters a space to host exhibitions, events and space for dialogue and exploration. 

Studio Renée DeCarlo shares space with the Drawing Room so the active studio practice engages passersby and introduces them to new artist's work and processes. 

Stop by sometime and see what's going on inside.....

Just around the corner from the Drawing Room on Mission is a new and temporary space that Renée was able to procure for the past 6 months. The lease will be coming due at the end of November, but in the short time since since acquiring it (late October 2019), Renée and a small army of artists came together to create a space to share local artists work - in the most profound way possible on a shoe-string budget and within a moment's notice. In December the Annex hosted ArtSpan's Holiday Market and then in January through much of February was the Tom Seligman exhibition "Nail Fetish". Curator Courtney Norris and Tom worked to create a cohesive and stunning exhibition in which a fastener's purpose cross cultural, religious and ideological boundaries - with humor underlying a number of works. 

Immediately follow Tom is the current show, "Women Rising" - an extraordinary exhibition of over 100 local SF based women artists have brought a piece relevant to their mastery and inquisition to share. Due to current COVID 19 situation, the Annex and Drawing Room galleries will be closed to the public, but the works will be available online for sale.
