Recognizing Zenith Gallery
At Tuesday’s Committee of the Whole meeting, the Council unanimously voted to recognize Ward 4’s Zenith Gallery for its 46 years of contribution to the DC community. Zenith was founded by Ward 4’s Margery Goldberg in 1978 when she was just 27 years old and has since become one of the foremost and longest-running art galleries in the city, sharing local, national, and international artists’ works with the community.
Margery herself has broken many barriers. She was one of the first women in America to have her own woodworking studio and has displayed over 300 works of art in galleries throughout the U.S., Canada, and Europe. She has also appeared in ten one-woman shows and more than 40 group shows in 13 U.S. cities. Congratulations to Margery and Zenith Gallery on this well-deserved honor!
