Parking:
Parking is available on University Avenue and beside the building.Jane Ellen B is a gallery dedicated to art apparel. Work by local and out-of-town artists includes hand dyed, hand woven, and felted clothing, felted and leather purses, hand made hats, and silver and gold jewelry. Presenting and selling art apparel requires a unique set of skills that is not often found in other galleries. Unlike selling paintings, glass, or ceramic artwork, apparel and accessories require close personal, almost intimate, attention to the customer. The client needs someone who can help with garment fitting, style selection, and building a look. Those needs are best addressed in a gallery with dedicated apparel experience.
The art work in Jane Ellen B is all one-of-a-kind or limited edition pieces. Apparel is different from other artwork because it is incomplete until worn; the person is the final element of the artwork. The goal is for each customer to find her own unique piece; one which brings together the artist, art work, and the customer. And as one customer said, it is so much more fun to get to wear the work of art versus hanging a painting on a wall.

Mary McMahon of Geneseo - hand woven chenille jackets and scarves
