RETAIL STOREFRONT
Storm Ritter Gallery II
OPENED SPRING 2023 | CLOSED FALL 2024
37 LITTLE WEST 12TH ST, MEATPACKING, NYC
After the success of the first Storm Ritter Gallery, in collaboration with G23NY, the artist opened a second storefront in the spring of 2023. Managing the brick-and-mortar six days a week, Storm solely operated the gallery, accompanied by her Studio Cat Velvet. Located right by the Whitney Museum of Art, Storm provided an intimate atmosphere for visiting locals and tourists. The inventory included remaining work from the 2022 solo show, Cirque of The Cool People, private collection studio art, new curations and art merchandise. She hosted private viewings and launched events while creating new work in the open studio space.

Storm Ritter not only operated the retail gallery storefront, but curated and designed the space. Adding a live painting studio in the front entrance, as well as a painted work counter, the artist was able to provide guests with an old school Village feel experience.
