Owner was very accommodating. She gave great advice to me being an artist. Coincidently I brought a friend that s a Doll artist and the owner was pleased that there was a connection because she had purchased one of her dolls well before our visit. Great experience!

I got married here October 24, 2021 and it was such a beautiful and perfect venue for our wedding celebration. We loved the location and the industrial feel. The art that was displayed at the time was so unique, as was the beautiful, arched window. This venue was affordable and Carla was very accommodating and helpful. It was a very special day for us filled with love and family/friends and so happy that we were able to find this gem in the city. I would highly recommend this venue!

I cannot believe I have yet to review this place. My event took place in December 2022 and I can not say how much I am glad I had our event here! The location is beautiful, there is plenty of parking options and I love the industrial feel you get here. Carla, the owner was amazing in answering my questions and concerns as well as helping me set up tables and chairs. She was incredible and flexible and I appreciate her so much. Pricing is amazing and it couldnt be beat! The place is beautiful and roomy, inside and out. The young man that stayed to tend to anything we needed was also very helpful and nice. Everything was beyond perfect and easy. I would definitely do an event here again when the time calls for it. If you are thinking of booking, do it!!!!! Carla is the best and her place is just beautiful.

This venue was perfect for our party with friends (45 guests but can hold more). Carla was so easy and great to work with the entire time. The table and chairs were provided so that made it very easy for us. We brought our own decorations but she had linens available too. Marcos helped us set up the space the way that we wanted and also helped take down/clean. The team there was excellent. Our guests loved the venue and all gave positive comments on the space. Highly recommend this venue for anyone s future events/parties.

What a wonderful place of peace and joy. We had them reimagine a piece of my wife and I. The original was in black and white. We wanted it in color. Their artist created something beautiful, that will hang on our walls for generations to come.

From the first tour of the gallery to closing at the end of the event, I could not be more pleased with my experience at Bisong Art Gallery. For months I had planned a graduation celebration for around 50 guests and I was lucky to find this venue towards the end of my search. The gallery is beautiful and spacious enough to accommodate mid-size gatherings. While the pictures online are nice, the venue looks even better in person and can be decorated to match the vision for your event. Carla is very responsive and made the booking process as simple as possible. I cannot thank Marcos enough for his help on the day of the event, he answered all of our questions and lended a hand when needed. I could go on for days but rest assured that Bisong Art Gallery is a Five-Star establishment and you should seriously consider it for your next event.

Spent the afternoon at Bisong Art Gallery as a vendor at their Crawfish Boil and Art Market. Its a wonderful, light-filled, urban space that is intimate in scale but showcases large scale works beautifully.

I was invited to be a vendor at the Bisong Art Gallerys 2nd Annual Crawfish Boil & Art Market yesterday. I was somewhat apprehensive, being unfamiliar with that part of town or the gallery itself. My fears were put aside as soon as I arrived, met the owner and entered the gallery. It was warm, inviting, accommodating and vibrant, perfectly reflecting the owners personality. At the end of the day, I left wishing I wouldnt have to wait a whole year for another vending opportunity at this venue.

I have visited Bisong Gallery several times for a variety of different events. Carla has curated artists that truly showcase her eye and appreciation for the arts. She is very knowledgeable about the Houston arts scene and hosts events that can help others begin their personal collection by supporting local artists and having the opportunity to meet the artists themselves. If you are a new collector or would just like to add a piece to your collection from a local artist, I highly recommend Carla.

I happened to stumble across this gallerys website when looking for places to host my event. Let me tell you I am SO thankful I did. This place is AWESOME! From the exposed brick, to the window wall, and most importantly the art work...it created a perfect setting to throw a surprise birthday party for my art lover girlfriend. The icing on the cake for me though was the staff. I have never worked with a venue whose staff is as amazing as the venue itself. Carla (the owner) was super responsive to all my emails, worked with my schedule to come see the space and even provided suggestions to the little details. Then you have Tyler, the Director of the gallery, who was my saving grace on the day of the event. Google cant give me enough space to thank you for everything. Keep up the good work ladies! Ill definitely be reaching out to you both in the future.
