CHEFAS PROJECTS
Chefas Projects is the labor of love from its owner, Stephanie Chefas, who started independently curating art exhibits for over a decade in Los Angeles and San Francisco. Now calling Portland home since 2014, Chefas retains an eye for cutting-edge and often challenging work that demands attention. Highlighting a diverse blend of contemporary artists from around the world, the gallery features monthly exhibitions with an emphasis on cultivating new talent and encouraging risk and evolution among established visionaries. Chefas also maintains her unique ability to coordinate group shows with distinct concepts that allow artists plenty of breathing room to interpret and explore. Chefas Projects is the result of both passion and dedication as well as commitment toward sharing the best in contemporary art with enthusiasts and collectors alike.
In December 2022, the gallery relocated to a 1,500sf location in the heart of the Industrial Southeast side of Portland, thus ushering in a new chapter. With the additional space, Chefas Projects offers two showing rooms where eponymous founder Stephanie Chefas will continue to curate exhibitions outside of the traditional fine art system.
Originally known as Stephanie Chefas Projects, the rebranding and shortened gallery name reflect the artwork and artists presented each month; bold with no apologies. Leave your pretensions at the door and join us for an unfettered exploration of striking color, searing imagery, and endless possibility.
