Inviting meets Hanover Gallery

Recently I sat down and chatted with Hanover Gallery co-owner and artist Melissa Peirano to ask her a few questions about the gallery and an amazing unique service they offer.



LaVerte: Tell us a little about Hanover Gallery and where it is located.
Melissa Peirano: My mother and I opened Hanover Gallery (part of the Shops at Riverview, behind the old Green Life) last summer (2007) to fill a niche in our community. We currently rep 15 artist, half local, half regional. The artwork ranges in style from folk to contemperary with prices from about $40-$4,000. We tried to create a happy, fun environment where anyone, whether a new or seasoned art collector, would feel welcome.



L: I have been hearing about possible being able to register? What a great idea, tell me more!
MP: We decided to offer a bridal, and well any time, gift registry. I already owned a home when I got married and would have loved to get a big piece of artwork, rather than more sheets and towels. If you love it all and cant decide, suggest gift certificates. The art in the Gallery changes all the time. You'll know when the perfect piece comes in! Also, you dont have to be a bride to start a "wish list", we'll keep suggestions for friends or spouses for all those gift giving occasions.




L: How would you suggest picking a piece to buy?
MP: Buy what you love...You might grow tired of a piece you buy for an investment, or even to match an existing piece, but if you love it now, chances are you'll love it forever!

Thanks Melissa for sharing with us this wonderful art gallery with an amazing service! I recommend Hanover Gallery to anyone any everyone!
