Veteran-Owned Art Space

Art doesn't run itself. Now it doesn't have to.

Gallery317OS is the operating system behind Gallery 317, an Indianapolis cultural hub amplifying underrepresented artists and bringing the community together through exhibitions, education, and events.

Thirty years between the first brushstroke and the gallery doors opening.

Rozell "RJ" Jordan served in the U.S. Navy, raised five kids, and carried an artist's heart through all of it. Gallery 317 is what happens when that heart finally gets a room of its own.

Located on East New York Street in Indianapolis, Gallery 317 is more than a gallery. It's a cultural bridge, hosting First Friday exhibits, Art After Dark events, youth summer programs, and workshops that make fine art feel like it belongs to everyone.

Gallery317OS keeps the lights on behind the scenes, so RJ can focus on what matters: the art and the people who show up for it.
