Founded in 2011 by Lacey Fekishazy, SARDINE was a contemporary art gallery presenting solo exhibitions, small group shows and occasional limited editions by featured artists. SARDINE's modest size was a key asset in the construction of a contemplative, intimate space which was used to showcase carefully curated collections of work as well as immersive, site-specific installations.

SARDINE believed in a simple philosophy of Art for Art's sake. We celebrated our 10th anniversary on October 1, 2021 and have now done over 75 events and exhibitions. SARDINE has been featured in ArtNews, Artsy, The New York Times, Time Out New York, The New Yorker and Hyperallergic. 

Fekishazy is an artist, gallerist, and lead draftsperson for the Estate of Sol LeWitt with roots in the Hudson Valley and NYC art communities. After a decade in NYC, Fekishazy currently lives and works in Newburgh, New York with her young family. She has organized the outdoor sculpture/installation show Glenlily Grounds (GLG) as part of Newburgh Open Studios for the past 10 years.
