There’s another hyper-local gallery in Bay Ridge. Underland Gallery, a brainchild of Hannah Salyer, Ester Kwon and Maxim Elrod, opened softly in October 2021, just before the COVID Omicron wave. Shaded by trees and with a mysterious cat-headed-sea-serpent adorning the gas lamp outside, Underland is a strange chimera of performance space, art gallery, and community center.

Join us as we explore this unique community space occupying an entire floor of gallery and performance space in Bay Ridge’s brownstone belt between 5th and 4th Avenue. How do such unique galleries come to be? What does it take to get one running? And what’s next for Underland?
