The Gallery 13

My favorite gallery in Asbury Park. My husband and I are proud to have several pieces hanging in our home from this gallery from many talented photographers. A great asset to the area, and we look forward to their shows and to seeing what else we can add to our collection. Add it to your list of must visit spots when in Asbury Park!

The work at this gallery includes local gallery artists and rotating exhibitions. There is something here for everyone, from beach scenes to street photography, landscapes to burlesque and everything in-​between. As a local college professor, I’m thrilled that my students are awarded a show here annually. As a photographer, I’m excited that there is a venue especially dedicated to photography in an economy where galleries are struggling to survive — they have carved out a great space for themselves in the market and I for one am thrilled that they are here in AP! The team at Gallery 13 is friendly and knowledgeable and the owner JV is a force in the local art and downtown merchant scene — we need more people like him!
Why 4 stars instead of 5 — simple, it’s a growing business, they just moved into a larger space and have been expanding their mission since they opened — I’m as excited for where they are now as I am about anticipating their future! Definitely check them out!

I’ve been to two gallery openings here. Both have had high school quality photography. Really uninteresting. The best part was the free wine and vegan cookies.
