For 33 years, art lovers have been climbing the daunting staircase up to Etherton Gallery, perched high on the second floor of downtownâs historic Oddfellow Hall.
Proprietor Terry Etherton is ending his more than three-decade run in downtown and moving to a one-story building at 340 S. Convent St. in Barrio Viejo.
âThe building was sold,â Etherton says of the current place. âIt was time to move on. Itâs a cool space. This is our 40th anniversary year. Itâs a good time to make a move.â
Etherton opened his first gallery in a retail space on Sixth Street near Fourth Avenue; he stayed there for seven years before setting down roots in the Odd Fellows building.
