‘Jean Jacobs Gallery’ To Open Sept. 18 on Main Street
|
Jacob Herman didn’t realize he was launching a career in the art world when, about three years ago, he began collecting items such as etchings and prints. Friends and family members showed an interest in Herman’s growing collection, which grew to a point where he began running online auctions of dozens of pieces through clearinghouse estates. After three successful auctions, he began looking around for a space to move the rapidly growing operation.
On Sept. 18, the Stamford resident will formally launch the Jean Jacobs Gallery at 84 Main St. in New Canaan.
