Art galleries in Venice
Galleries are best taken slowly. Venice, Veneto has 40 mapped right now. That's 40 galleries mapped around Venice. The exhibition schedule matters more than the count: a small gallery with a great current show beats a big one between exhibitions. Opening nights are the cheat code — free entry, the artists in the room, and a crowd that actually wants to talk about the work.
This guide covers every art gallery we could verify in and around Venice (within about 40 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data. Names you'll run into include Ex farmacia Solveni and Marci Missiaia, plus Melori & Rosenberg. If a gallery's missing from Venice's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet.

Gallery tips for Venice
Gallery-going in Venice? A few habits help:
- Note the curator's name at Ex farmacia Solveni. Good curators have taste you can follow. If you loved the show, look up what else they've put together.
- First Fridays and art walks at Marci Missiaia. Many towns run a monthly evening when galleries open late together. The easiest way to see everything at once.
- Ask about the price list. It's normal to ask, even if you're not buying. It tells you how the market values the work.
- Check the exhibition schedule first. A gallery is only as good as its current show. Two minutes on the website saves a wasted trip between exhibitions.
Good to know
We searched about 40 km around Venice — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new art gallery in Venice can take a while to appear. The 40 above are only as current as the community map. A art gallery that's shut, or a new one nobody's added yet, gets fixed with a single OpenStreetMap edit.
We don't review exhibitions — shows change too fast. What we list is the where: real galleries, verified by real mappers.
If you run one of the 40 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
Art gallery listings for Venice: 40 mapped from OpenStreetMap contributors (ODbL). Photos from Wikimedia Commons contributors; individual photo credits appear in captions. Listing data was last refreshed automatically — verify hours before visiting.
