Redbrick Gallery is a place to view and enjoy art, meet other artists and patrons, as well as discuss all artistic endeavors. Doreane Conrad opened the gallery in August 2007 and is located in historic downtown Martinsburg in a three story brick building that was built circa 1890. Renovation on the building began in 2004, which was home to pigeons and bats at that time. After three years of extensive renovations it is now the home of the art gallery and the owner’s family.
