You can rent the Chris White Gallery. Do you need event space for a pop-up market, one-day art exhibit, meeting or party? Our art gallery is in downtown Wilmington, Delaware.
Click here to see our event calendar. It shows what is already scheduled in the gallery.
Conveniently located at the corner of 7th and Shipley Streets, the gallery is a short block from Market Street. The gallery is available for rent every day of the week from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. as our schedule allows. Occupancy is limited to 99 people on two levels. Click here to see the floor plans.
We have on-going exhibits, so any event must leave the art in place untouched. Usually art is only on the walls but occasionally 3-dimensional work is on pedestals or otherwise taking up floor space. Renters are expected to respect the art and, hopefully, enjoy it.
If you are interested in a rental, please contact us. You will be asked to complete a rental contract and make a rental deposit of $25. No rental is confirmed until these last steps are complete.
