MASS Gallery
East Austin · Austin, Texas
MASS Gallery is an artist-run, member-supported gallery in East Austin presenting experimental and emerging contemporary art with a commitment to curatorial risk-taking, community access, and supporting the artists who make Austin's independent creative scene thrive. The gallery's collective model ensures that programming reflects the genuine interests of working artists rather than the demands of the commercial market, resulting in exhibitions of unusual variety and authenticity - work that takes chances and trusts its audience to engage seriously. MASS Gallery's East Austin location places it at the heart of the city's most dynamically evolving creative neighborhood, where it serves as a gathering place for Austin's younger and more independent artistic community.
