Dear friends,
I would like to invite you to the new bazaar called Galleria. Located in Kolola Poshta, next to the Wakhan Cafe and near the Dutch embassy, Galleria is a joint effort by Afghans to create a space to display arts and crafts while providing an opportunity to smaller creative endeavors to sell directly to the market. The partners are:
Silk Road Bamiyan Japanese Restaurant and Bamiyan handicrafts. selling clothes and bag and some living item like a cusion cover, aplon etc. We use Bamiyan hand weaven fabric. Also we sell Bamiyan teddy bear. The restaurant offers lunch and coffee and tea. We deliver lunches and dinners. Menu at the bottom

Aside from the National Gallery, our gallery is the largest active gallery in Afghanistan. Look for the exciting exhibitions starting April 2010! Collection photos at the bottom.
Galleria is different in its approach in several ways. The main differences are the desire to be dynamic and artist friendly. We will give our guests an opportunity to see how some of our products are made, live. Also, certain spaces, such as the second floor gallery & hallway belonging to Chelcherogh Arts, is available for exhibitions from other people and organizations. This space is as much for marketing as it is for introducing new talents and ideas.
Galleria is open daily from 10 AM - 6 PM. We will have a large party December 11. More info later.
Galleria has started with a great hopes and would like to expand to more areas of need. We certainly hope that you would make us part of your tour around Kabul City.
