Located in the heart of Old Algiers, Verret st. Gallery is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream for artist Aline Abolakian Cross. Born in France to Armenian immigrant parents, Aline moved to Sydney, Australia while still a child. Growing up along the shores of Sydney harbour, she pursued her career in the arts with various design firms until the day she met her future husband, a New Orleanian residing in Sydney. After visiting New Orleans numerous times with her husband, Aline moved to New Orleans with her family in 2004. Continuing to produce art for friends and family, Aline began to sell her work online in 2008. Interest in her work has grown since then and the impetus to have her own gallery space grew as well. The Verret st. Gallery began construction in November 2019 and was completed in July 2020. Please feel free to contact the gallery to arrange a showing or to enquire as to our currently scheduled hours of operation.
