Administered and Operated for the Township of Cranbury by
The Gourgaud Gallery Committee, a Part of the Cranbury Arts Council
The Gourgaud
Gallery, located on the first floor of the Town Hall, has become a center for
the Arts in Cranbury. The Gourgaud Gallery Committee strives to bring new,
exciting exhibits to the Gallery each month. The Gallery features a new exhibit
each month, open to all, beginning each exhibit with an Artist’s Reception on
the first Sunday of each month from 1-3p.m. The GGC also offers musical soirees,
poetic and dramatic readings, film screenings, lectures and classes.
The GGC is run by volunteers interested in the arts. The current members are Amy Amico, Chair; Mary Ellen Brennan, Colleen Cahill, Daniel Thomas, Susan Troost, Bob Virgadamo, Lisa Walsh and Tamara Woronczuk. GGC is looking for additional volunteers to staff the committee, whose purpose is to oversee the operation and generally run the Gallery. Any member of the committee does not need an art background…merely an interest in art, the ability to give some time to the operation, and a desire to see the Gallery and the Arts continue to thrive in Cranbury. Members of the Committee serve one year terms. The GGC meets once a month, in the Gourgaud Gallery.
Any Cranbury-based non-profit group or organization may utilize the space, by appointment. For registration information contact the GGC at
