Work Environment
Most art galleries are pleasant, intellectually engaging places to work, and owners and directors often have comfortable offices. Most art galleries are open five or more days a week. They are typically open during regular business hours, but many offer extended hours in the evening. Owners and directors often work as many as 50 to 60 hours a week.
Some gallery owners and directors may travel to visit artists' studios, attend auctions, or participate in museum/art history conferences.
