Help Gallery5 find this stolen painting

by | Feb 18, 2016 | ART

This past Saturday, Feb.

This past Saturday, Feb. 13, a painting by local painter Kevin McKee was stolen from Gallery5. His exhibit “Sleep Paralysis” is currently on display through Feb. 25.

From Gallery5: “If you have seen or heard anything please let us or the police know. We are held together by a handful of people that donate a lot of time and energy. We will not tolerate the disrespect to both the artist and the entity. Please keep your eyes open for this painting and help us further protect and respect our mission and artists. Gallery5 is now taking new precautions to provide a more secure space.”

If you have any information on the stolen painting please contact Gallery5 at booking@gallery5arts.org or (804)510-0488 or the police.
