 * Weak keep Gallery with a long history and significant regional importance asserted in the sources (first gallery in the area, sources claim importance in art scene in southeast US). The fact that it has closed is irrelevant. Notability derives from reporting on the gallery itself not who exhibited there. WP:GNG does not exclude local/regional press, even though it's general practice that local press counts for less than e.g. New York Times. It's not the Guggenheim but it's got more coverage than most private/commercial galleries. --Colapeninsula (talk) 13:15, 25 November 2013 (UTC)
