Galleries? Galleries? What galleries?

I am appalled and sad that galleries are so few and far between, in fact where are they?

My husband used to be in numerous craft galleries in the greater bay area, which have dropped like flies, one by one. I miss those....they were such rich visual wonderlands, the mix of functional craft and art, so accessible.The art jewelry, the glass, the pottery! And I miss the galleries of paintings and sculptures. What does it bode for a culture when these businesses can't stay afloat?

My prediction?........... A backlash of demand!! I don't know when, but I think we will yet see a renaissance of crafts to rival the seventies! It's out there....in the future, waiting to feed a soul-starved culture ! And that thought gives me hope.
