I am proud to say that in 2 1/2 short years, with approx. 45 events under our belt, and countless artists, buyers and charities that Starting-Artists will no longer actively host events under this name. What we "started" in June of 2005 has become Reaves Gallery as of April 2007.
I invite you to join us in this continual celebration.

Endless gratitude and love to everyone who helped us along this journey and we've only begun!!!
