Chihuly Gallery in St Petersburg Florida

This week I had an e-mail asking whether the Dale Chihuly Gallery had opened yet in St. Petersburg. If he's wondering - perhaps you are, too.

The Dale Chihuly gallery was announced back in 2005 as part of the ambitious development of the Arts Center, including two condo towers, The Arts. Since construction on the condos has not started yet, neither has the Dale Chihuly gallery. By the way, each condo owner will receive a piece of Chihuly art.

Chihuly had a wonderfully successful exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts in downtown St Petersburg. People were lined up along the park for blocks waiting to get in.
