The Banning Art Gallery is reopening Thursday March 4. It has been a challenging year for the non profit gallery due to the pandemic closing the gallery, just as they moved into their new location at 42 W. Ramsey Ste "C," in Banning CA.

The Banning Art Gallery had just relocated to its new location when the pandemic brought all plans for celebrating with a grand opening event to a close in March of 2020.

"Our artists have missed the gallery and all of our patrons that appreciate their works," said Cindy Watson, gallery coordinator. "I look forward to seeing a bustling downtown emerge again and our wonderful gallery and artists being a part of it all," she continued.
