The Snyderman-Works Galleries
The Works Gallery was founded by Ruth Snyderman in 1965. Rick Snyderman
joined her in the operation of the gallery in 1972.
It is one of the oldest exhibiting galleries in the field of contemporary studio crafts, representing selected artists working in figurative, narrative and functional ceramics, glass, jewelry, fiber and wood.

Dear clients, artists, and friends of Snyderman-Works,
We would like to inform you that we will be closing our doors. Rick and I sold the Snyderman-Works building last week, but we will be open from Tuesday to Saturday until the end of July. On First Friday in July we will be open for our regular hours of 10am to 6pm. If anyone has been dreaming about a work in the gallery, we will extend a 25% discount on all work that has been here since May, 2017. We are in the process of shipping some work back to artists, which we will continue to work on until September, when we must vacate the building.
Rick and I will be leaving for Maine on July 2nd. If we do not see you before next week, thank you all for helping us have such a long career - 52 years! It has always been interesting, challenging, and lots of fun.
We hope to keep busy by serving as art consultants on
several projects. You can follow our progress in this venture at http://snydermanartconsultants.weebly.com/ Our space will be occupied by an interior design firm, and we look forward to working with them on their projects in the future. We will be moving out of our home above the gallery as well by mid-September. We have bought an incredible condo just two blocks away, so we will still see all our neighbors.
We will miss all of you but hope to continue our
friendships with many of you.
Sincerely,
Ruth and Rick Snyderman
