Zenith Gallery Announces its Move to The Arts at 5th & I

Zenith Gallery has officially announced that it will leave its current home in Penn Quarter and will join The Arts at 5th & I.

From the release:

...founder and proprietor Margery E. Goldberg said, “Mind you, we are not closing. We’re just changing the way we do business. We will continue to sell art and remain active in Washington’s cultural arena.”

The new move to The Arts will allow a fundamental rethinking of how Zenith approaches its gallery, consulting and non-profit activities:

For Goldberg, Zenith’s future holds opportunities and promise as she begins to explore options and plan how she wants to present, provide and promote art in her next phase as a Washington impresario and activist. In the next few years, she’s also slated to move Zenith Gallery to a luxury hotel at Mt. Vernon Triangle, which is part of a multi-use project (The Arts at 5th & I, awarded by Mayor Fenty) that will include a residential complex, jazz club, restaurant and more.

We're excited to welcome Margery Goldberg and Zenith to the MVT neighborhood.
