Melville Gallery

Located in the South Street Seaport Historic District, the Melville Gallery will be re-imagined as a Lower Manhattan Cultural Council Swing Space for the Winter and Spring of 2009. A vestige of the neighborhood's previous life as a bustling center for maritime commerce, the gallery is located in a former store on cobbled Water Street. Generously donated by the South Street Seaport Museum, the Melville Gallery will serve as presentation space for projects in the visual and performing arts.
