Grand opening weekend at relocated Post Oak location garners flattering reviews.
We wish to thank all the gallery's friends for stopping by not only before the opening weekend, but during the weekend in order to wish us good luck. Customers reported to us that it still felt spacious, the merchandise mix was exciting, and that the displays were very pleasing, inviting and accessible.
Hanson Galleries welcomes you to stop by at your leisure to experience our new home. We are still collecting umbrellas until the end of the month which will then be given to The Women's Home as part of our Grand Opening charity celebration. |

Very special burl turnings from the Stintons
Our customers are not strangers to burlwood, since we started our business with burlwood furniture 36 years ago. However, we seldom see extraordinary pieces like this anymore.
Hand selected just for our opening, these pieces are beautiful in their naturalness. Click here to see some of the work from this new artist family. All currently being shown at Post Oak.

Greetings!
We are so excited to be in our new home! Learning to use the space came naturally after all the boxes were unpacked. We hope you find a need to stop in to see us in the coming months. We sincerely hope we have designed a store that you will be very comfortable shopping in and that you will find many new surprises around every corner.
We have consciously tried to have a balance of the best of the gallery favorites and plenty of new work from which to choose. Your friendly Hanson Galleries staff are more rested after the move and are all here ready to greet you and make you feel comfortable.
The Memorial City location has benefitted from the addition of much new work and stands ready for your visit when on that side of town.
With appreciation,
Art, Donna and Larry and all your Hanson Galleries friends
