Most people walk into CODA Gallery for the first time and stop in their tracks. They look around, eyes wide open and mouth slightly agape. Then they start to smile. CODA is a spontaneous feast for the senses, a warm welcoming environment infused with an infectious spirit of fun. The art at CODA is full of color and life, an eclectic mix of painting, sculpture, glass and objects, that share nothing except an extraordinary energy that makes the viewer feel good. After all, there is no reason that buying art has to be an intimidating experience.

Artists themselves are a large part of the experience of CODA. The gallery hosts frequent openings, and on any given day it is not unusual for one or more of the artists to be present at the gallery; sketching, painting, or just enjoying the fine and exciting art on the walls. Says owner David Katz, "The gallery business is simple. Find the right art, price everything fairly, have a great staff and treat people the way you would like to be treated."
