The Photolab Gallery is a not for profit gallery space made available to selected photographers to showcase and sell their work.  The Gallery provides the San Francisco Bay Area with an opportunity to expand its exposure to current excellent photographic work and local artists and to  buy directly from the artists.

The Photolab Gallery has shown over 125 exhibits since 1991, featuring the work of over 120 photographers including several artists who have been invited to show more than once.

Many photographers whose work was shown in the Gallery have gone on to be represented by professional art galleries and stock agencies.

How to apply
Most photographers contact us by email to receive an application and set up an portfolio review. Portfolios can also be submitted by mail in the form  of cds or dvds, slides.
 
Before applying, we suggest you
1. Visit the Gallery in person to get a feel for our space and style and take a look at the current work on exhibit.
2. Read the exhibition application to get familiar with our guidelines and requirements.

Portfolio Reviews
Portfolios are usually reviewed on Saturday mornings by appointment only. Please call or email Andrea McLaughlin to make an appointment.

no mini shows are scheduled

If you have an interesting, small exhibit
on a single theme or short subject
(4 to 8 pictures for one wall) and would be willing to hang it, usually on short notice, and take it down again, contact Andrea at Photolab: (510) 644-1400

we use these small exhibits for short periods (usually a week or 2 at most) between larger full exhibits.
