Touchstone Gallery has moved out of 406 7th Street due to renovation of the premises. We are in the process of finding new space at street level. In a meantime our gallery is virtual and by appointment.


NEW LOCATION, NEW GALLERY, NEW MEMBERS ... JOIN US NOW!

New Gallery. After a long intensive search, TOUCHSTONE is putting the finishing touches on plans for a new and modern gallery at 901 NY Avenue NW, an attractive street-level location between the Museum of Women in the Arts and the new convention center, and around the corner from the new Longview Gallery.


New Members. Our new gallery offers the opportunity for TOUCHSTONE to continue its long history as a dedicated art venue in the center of Washington. To take full advantage of this opportunity, we are expanding our membership and reaching out to artists who would like to be part of the next stage of TOUCHSTONE's thirty-plus year history in the District.  Benefits of membership include a biennial solo show, monthly member shows, artist bins and a gallery website with online artist pages and store.
