About the Mercer Island Gallery  

The Mercer Island Gallery is one of two galleries programmed by City of Mercer Island in collaboration with the Mercer Island Arts Council and the community. Located at the Mercer Island Community & Event Center, this indoor space is open to the public and has mounted exhibits by artists from around the Puget Sound Region. Due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, the gallery closed in March 2020. City staff are currently working with the Arts Council and members of the Mercer Island Visual Arts League (MIVAL) to program gallery exhibits for 2022. More information will be shared on the Mercer Island Gallery webpage when available.
