On Friday, May 15, more than 80 galleries in New York's Tribeca neighborhood will stay open late for Tribeca Gallery Night, from 6pm to 8pm. Three new galleries are joining the event: Tappeto Volante Gallery (opening at 4 Cortlandt Alley with a show of painter Angelo Vasta), Gratin (opening at 15 White Street with a solo show for Spanish artist Mónica Mays), and Southern Guild (relocated from Los Angeles to 75 Leonard Street, featuring solo shows for Usha Seejarim and Mmangaliso Nzuza).
This event underscores Tribeca's growing dominance as the nexus of New York's gallery scene, attracting both local and international galleries. The influx of new spaces—from Brooklyn, the Lower East Side, and even South Africa—signals the neighborhood's increasing appeal for contemporary art dealers and collectors, reinforcing its status as a key art district.
