ABOUT THE GALLERY: Established in March 2021, The Nora Patterson Gallery exhibits drawings, paintings, photography, sculptures & more by Nora Patterson and other regional artists. Located in Los Santos's emerging arts district (comprised of neighborhoods Burton & Hawick), the gallery is situated in proximity to agencies such as Davis & Rodriguez Studio, ELEGANCE, and the San Andreas Gallery of Modern Art. "Our hope is to spark an interest in the Arts & Culture by holding exhibitions, workshops, and various educational programs." said Mrs. Patterson, CEO/Director of her eponymously-named gallery. ABOUT NORA PATTERSON: Nora Patterson is an American painter who is best known for her abstract & contemporary work. Her paintings are inspired by distant memories from her childhood, such as her time spent running errands with her mother. Mrs. Patterson holds an advanced degree in Art History from the University of Oregon, as well as an M.F.A. in Visual Studies from the Pacific Northwest College of Art. She moved to Los Santos in the eighties to make a name for herself, selling caricature portraits to tourists along Del Perro Pier. She took up waitressing to finance her passions, struggling to make ends meat until she secured a teaching position at the University of Los Santos, San Andreas. There, she taught Fine Arts for over thirty years and eventually became the Dean of Arts & Humanities. During her tenure as Dean, she continued to share her love for the Arts while simultaneously handling student affairs. Mrs. Patterson parted ways with ULSA in late 2020 to pursue a career in the city government's Department of Cultural Affairs. Her recent project, Los Santos' Got Talent, was a joint effort to provide up-and-coming artists with a citywide platform.
