Wilmington’s Brooklyn Arts District on North Fourth St. just got a little artsier.

SALT Studio is the new, full-service, commercial and portrait photography studio of local photographers Kelly Starbuck and Horace Long at 805 N. Fourth St.   The studio allegedly features Wilmington’s only gallery that exclusively displays fine art photography, the Gallery at SALT Studio.

Photography by Starbuck and Long will be exhibited in SALT’s grand opening public reception 5 to 9 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 7.   Decadence will be provided by La Gemma Fine Italian Pastries.

SALT is just a short walk away from 621N4TH, the Wilma W. Daniels Gallery, and ACME Art Studios, three galleries that already give Fourth Friday Gallery Nights a strong foothold in the northern portion of downtown.  In fact, patrons who exit the “Christmas Sale and Open House” at ACME Saturday afternoon from the studio warehouse’s Fourth St. entrance will only be a block away from the SALT grand opening.  With other artsy small businesses like Goat and Compass, the Brooklyn Arts Center, Squidco, and the soon-to-come Flytrap Brewing brewery nearby, the Brooklyn Arts District is really starting to live up to its name.
