Gallery OTR enjoy art and raise funds and awareness for Over the Rainbow Association

About Gallery OTR

Gallery OTR, founded by Les Russo and Jody O'Connor, showcases local North Shore artists and OTR residents at Hill Arboretum Apartments.


Each show launches with a Thursday night reception, drawing friends, patrons, and OTR supporters.

Artwork stays on display for a month, and a portion of sales supports Over The Rainbow. The gallery also features a special resident showcase celebrating the creativity within the OTR community. The goal: sell art, build community, and raise awareness for OTR.

Next Gallery Exhibit opens July 10
