HISTORY
Gallery 100 was the brainchild of Glen Paulson who was a Silver Maples resident. He was an architect with his own firm, a professor in the College of Architecture and Urban Planning at U of M and the President of Cranbrook Academy of Art. He saw the possibilities in an empty hall space at Silver Maples, and the conversion to Gallery 100 was completed in 2009.
The first show featured photographs by Angie and Jim Georg (Ann Arbor) and was a huge success. The Gallery 100 was off and running with shows by local artists changing every two months. Gallery 100 developed on-going relationships with the Chelsea Painters, Chelsea Artists Guild, Ann Arbor Fiber Arts Guild, CAADY quilters and more.
Shows ranged from Birds, Bugs and Beasts which went on to show at the Frankfurt Gallery, to Motor Cycle Mamas, which included vintage motorcycles, to the Prisoners Creative Arts Project artwork and more. The Gallery 100 represents the incredible amount of talent in the region.
