Currently, the gallery is accepting submissions for its first four shows, including an exhibit of street photography called Street Stories. The show will be on view from November 8 - December 3. Here’s more information about Street Stories:
"Photographers who shoot on the streets become undercover agents, witnesses, and stalkers. They also serve as interpreters of our society. Street photographers are hyper-aware of their surroundings, of irony, of fleeting moments, and they tell the stories of the people around them. For Street Stories, The Kiernan Gallery welcomes images that offer a unique look at our every day world and the people in it."

"The greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world is to see something, and tell what it saw in a plain way. Hundreds of people can talk for one who can think, but thousands can think for one who can see. To see clearly is poetry, prophecy, and religion, — all in one." — John Ruskin
