7. We like it when you hang out here

5e Gallery is a place for you to hang out — whether it be for discussing the art in the galleries or debating the merits of the film you just saw. And we have free wi-fi. So come early or stay late.

8. We’re not done yet

Since moving into our new building, we’ve undergone a steady stream of renovations to build the arts center. What’s next, you ask? Well, for starters, we have Community Clean Up every Saturday 12noon-6pm. Stay tuned for the next phase.

 

9. We Love our Community

Another part of our Mission is to maintain a strong, healthy relationship with the neighborhood. Through various public art projects and involvement in neighborhood planning committees, 5e Gallery will be a presence in Corktown for years to come.

10. And, well, we make popcorn with butter for our Film Screenings.
