THE COVERT COLLECTION GALLERY

The Covert Collection has entered a new chapter—one built on collaboration, creativity, and shared purpose. Now operating as an artist-run co-op, our gallery brings together a curated group of photographers and visual storytellers who believe in the power of community and the value of collective voice.

Here, every artist has a stake in the space. We shape the gallery together, contribute to its success, and support one another’s creative journeys.

This cooperative model strengthens our mission: to champion meaningful, authentic work and make fine art more accessible to collectors, local businesses, and the community we serve.

Our Mission

We exist to create a vibrant, supportive environment where artists can grow, showcase their work, and build connections—all while offering buyers a more personal, engaging experience with the art they bring into their lives.

Our goals are simple:

• Empower artists through shared opportunity, collaboration, and fair representation.

• Foster community by creating a space where creativity and conversation thrive.

• Deliver exceptional artwork that reflects diverse perspectives, techniques, and approaches.

• Build trust with collectors by offering transparency, authenticity, and a direct connection to the artists themselves.

Why a Co-Op Model?

For Artists

A co-op removes barriers. It replaces high commissions and limited visibility with shared responsibility, equal voice, and collective growth. Artists benefit from:

• Lower overhead and equitable commission structures

• More control over how their work is displayed and marketed

• A supportive, collaborative environment

• Opportunities for shared events, exhibitions, and community reach

For Collectors & Buyers

Purchasing from a co-op means you’re not just buying art—you’re supporting the artists directly. You benefit from:

• Authentic, original work created by local and regional artists

• Transparent pricing and direct artist relationships

• A curated yet diverse selection of photographic styles and subjects

• The knowledge that your purchase strengthens the creative community around you

Where Art and Community Meet

The Covert Collection Artist Co-Op is more than a gallery—it’s a living, breathing creative space built by the artists who fill it. Whether you’re discovering a new piece for your home, seeking inspiration, or exploring membership, we welcome you into a community rooted in passion, craft, and connection.
