As a UNO student, this is an amazing gallery I have had to attend for events pertaining to my major. Very clean and spacious, with live events and food provided. While I understand it is something that they cannot control, I believe parking is the only issue I can find. Very limited parking leads to difficulty entering the gallery, especially on opening nights. Otherwise, it is a great gallery that I would recommend visiting if you want to see local artists at work.

the owner has implicit biases and is very covert in how he addresses marginalized bodies. I've been to this place for a couple events now, and the chairs never bothered me, but some reason the man found a chair and asked me to sit in it. I was confused as to why he tried , but failed, to just say he assumed the chair wouldn't support my weight. Luckily, someone noticed the interaction and acknowledged the harm he caused. I would encourage the owner to consider, as a larger man himself, the accessibility, or maybe lack there of, he offers to the audience.

Today (April 12th, 2023), Gallery 1516 told a group of disabled people that they must leave because one autistic individual was stimming. I am a Direct Support Professional who works with disabled people, and we were taking them to see the art with my coworker. An older staff member who I suspect is the owner of the gallery came up to my coworker and I and demanded we leave because this individual was being "inappropriate". The client was simply spinning in circles, which is his way of expressing happiness and is a trait of his disability. When I told the staff member that this was discrimination, he responded with "You can call it what you want, but you can't be here". He continued to say this person was disruptive and that him being there was "inappropriate" because this was an art gallery. We tried explaining his disability, and he insisted we leave. I was SHOCKED, especially as an autistic person to hear him say this. I told the staff working at the desk that I am extremely disappointed, and this is wrong. As my coworker was trying to assist the person with autism out of the gallery, the gallery staff who told us to leave began to record the client. We are EXTREMELY unhappy, and there is no words to describe the evil I have seen today.Stimming is a very real, and very extraordinary form of self expression for autistic people. He was not being disruptive, there were no visitors besides us within the gallery. This is blatant discrimination, and the fact that this happened during April (Autism Acceptance Month) shows their lack of education and respect towards disabled people. and I am heartbroken that the artists have their work associated with such abuse.

When my friend told me she was having her book event here, I immediately looked up the pictures and was blown away. The pictures doesn't do the space justice (I forgot to take more pictures). The space was open and the wood beams added warmth to the space. It didn't feel cold and cavernous.
