Where art and healing intersect.
The lobby of Tai Sophia’s building serves as the gallery space which features four exhibitions each year launched in April 2003. Over the years, the space has been home to paintings, drawings, prints, photography, fabric, and artist-made paper. Each exhibition focuses on some aspect of healing, wellness, or nature. Artworks are generally for sale, with purchases made at the Meeting Point Bookstore.
Tai Sophia’s Art Committee selects artists after a review of their artworks, a one-page proposal, and resume or biography. Those wishing to submit an application for an exhibition should contact John Wilson (ext. 6619) for further details.
The Himmelfarb Gallery honors the Helen M. and Annetta E. Himmelfarb Foundation for its gift of $1 million to the Institute, the largest donation in Tai Sophia’s history. The dedication and naming of the space took place on November 17, 2006.

SPECIAL DISCOUNT OFFER ON SARA STEELE PAINTINGS
Due to Sara Steele’s great admiration for Tai Sophia Institute and the philosophy it transmits (including her studies here years ago), she has made a very special, time-limited offer: a 25% discount on all paintings valued at $1000 and above. The offer is in effect from 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 2 (night of the Artist Reception) through 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, November 3, 2011.
A portion of the sales of these artworks will support the work of the Institute. This is an extraordinary opportunity to purchase one of Sara’s magnificent watercolors and benefit Tai Sophia at the same time.
The Meeting Point Bookstore at Tai Sophia handles the sale of paintings for the Himmelfarb Gallery where 30 of Sara’s works are on view. Purchases must be made in person during the Artist Reception. During business hours on November 3 you can get the discount in person or by phone order (410-888-9048 ext. 6632).
