E14 Gallery

Amazing hidden gallery with a plethora of local artists' creative work for sale. There are so many beautiful pieces it will make your head spin in amazement. Don't be surprised if you walk out with more than you anticipated. It will be entirely worth it. The owner is amazingly friendly, full of knowledge & welcomes all into the gallery.

Such a great place to visit. We happened to walk in from the street and were pleasantly surprised to find some awesome art and nice items for purchase. I highly recommend checking this place out.

Some nice stuff here but not for me. I did like that one would be supporting Black business.

Positive vibes, building space for Oakland artists. Support them... like rn.

It is a nice space. Thw lady was very friendly and helpful

Amazing space. Great local art. Saw a program on Boricua issues, connected to Hurricane Maria. There is seating space for watching film and in the front there is a store with art. In the middle is hanged art. They have award winning displays and it is a fantastic burst of color.

Love love love this place. When I come home to Oakland, I can't wait to visit E 14 GALLERY. A place to buy one of a kind pieces, and also celebrates our blended cultures.

Beautiful art work and clothes!

Super cute store with unique items. Got a sticker and bamboom Oakland earrings. Caught the spot while enjoying the farmers market.

This is a cute little art space and I loved it. We only went by because we were waiting for my sister to exit her hotel, about a block or so down the street, and were strolling around and ran into this little gem. The art is nice and cool, and they have a lot of art from local people. The person managing the gallery was next door doing some painting in a studio and he came over to welcome us. He had very large depictions of Africa, some were collages and some were painted. I would love to see them featured next to each other on a blank wall. But they were scattered about the shop. My picture features the art of Woody Johnson, a friend of my dad and my husband's. I'm quite familiar with his art and this is a new style. They have paintings of different sizes for every budget. Some big pieces, smaller framed pieces, some prints, and everyone in there was local. It's nice to support local artists and very necessary. They need the money, attention, time and love too. I will definitely be back!

The E14 Gallery is a great place to stop by. The beautiful colors and artwork drew me in. The atmosphere is very inviting and empowering. This place has a little bit of everything. They have Oakland merchandise, art prints, clothing, jewelry, and more! Pros: -lots of POC artwork and prints available in different sizes -Oakland merchandise available -near the Oakland 12th Street Bart -friendly staff Cons: -n/a

Love this spot for quick gifts because everything has a message that must be shared. From tshirts to notebooks to pins, it's a must that u stop in and buy something.

Walking east on 9th Street from Washington to Broadway, I noticed the huge glass window with the etched signage E14 Gallery. The door was still open, despite there was an indication that they close at 6:00 PM. It was already 6:45 PM; thus, I peered in and asked a young female employee if I could come in to visit and admire the artwork on exhibit. Yes was the response. The gallery was hosting an event at the time; therefore, they were open later than usual. Curiosity got the best of me, as I enjoy art galleries. Certainly there are plenty of them in town for enjoyment and appreciation. Perhaps a walking tour of all these beautiful art galleries would enhance a person to learn a little more about Oakland and its history. (Visualization of the walk would start with this gallery and conclude with Sanchez Contemporary where one can sit and enjoy as the French would say "une cafe et un croissant, s'il vous plait." LOL.) For me, it all started with Sanchez Contemporary, then the Joyce Gordon Gallery and Sole Space - galleries that I have visited within a few months of each other. All these galleries are located within walking distance of each other, stretching from Old Oakland to Downtown to Uptown. Two are on the main thoroughfare of Telegraph Avenue; one is on 14th Street; and this one, 9th Street. The E14 Gallery is spacious and well lit. All the artwork and paintings are done by local artists. (This gallery must have recently opened, as there is one other review on this website.) The front part of the gallery is a gift shop, selling T-shirts, books, unique miniature items, etc. A corridor leading to the back of the gallery has more artwork, paintings, and photos by local artists mounted on the walls. Finally, I agree with the person who did the FTR (first to review) that this gallery is cool and it has interesting art designs. As the wall mural on the Marriott says, visit Oakland. I say visit the art galleries mentioned above. They are all superb in what is being on display.

It's never too late to give shoutouts to GREAT people that put on/participate/contribute to quality events. Sunday April 8th I had the pleasure of attending an AMAZING Hair, Art, Fashion #HAF event put on by @ali.pate @vicecutter @bpdidit and I must say, it was sooooo much fun! The venue @e14gallery was beautifully decorated with vibrant art, the crowd was young, diverse and beautiful, the featured barbers/hairstylists/art work artists/vendors/henna artist/photographers/videographers/DJ/Check in crew etc EVERYONE was ON POINT!!! The vibes in that room were soooo motivating and inspiring, the message I left with this night was HUSTLE HARD, shed love light & UNITE!!!

My Auntie who lives in Oakland brought me here, and I am so glad she did. I always appreciate museums that focus on local artists, this one also boasts artist that are POC I feel in LOVE with a few pieces that were reasonably priced and a few days later I am wishing I had. I was really impressed with the space, the curators skills at pulling you into the work she is describing and the pieces on display. I was bummed to hear that they were moving..luckily it's across the street. I look forward to visiting again.

Love everything about E14 Gallery. Cultural and rooted in Oakland Pride. You'll find the current treasure from jewelry to artist prints. A sense of community and everything Oakland represents.

Cool Art Gallery, had a friend display his work there, there were other interesting art designs.
