A chapter member of the International Sculpture Center, Almitra Stanley currently directs Boston Sculptors Gallery.

History

Founded in 1992, The Boston Sculptors Gallery is the creation of two local Boston artists Joyce McDaniel and Murray Dewart whom in 1992 joined 17 other artists to form a cooperative exhibition space.
Originally opened in a converted Sunday School, the gallery relocated in 2004 to 486 Harrison Avenue in the SOWA arts district of Boston, where it was one of the first galleries to open in the newly converted art space.
Over time, membership has increased as the cooperative has expanded to 37 active members as of 2020.

The gallery program has garnered critical attention from numerous publications, including The Boston Globe and Artforum. In 2018, the Boston Sculptors Gallery was awarded as one of the 25 Best American Galleries and Museums by the American Art Awards.
