A new art gallery called the Klein Gallery is opening at the space formerly occupied by the Lafayette Art Gallery (which moved to Mt. Diablo Blvd. next to Bo’s Barbecue and Artisan Bistro). This is located in half a building with the other half housing The Art Room studio which offers art classes to children. In fact, the owner of both The Art Room and the Klein Gallery are the same.
