NFL tight end and 49ers superstar Vernon Davis celebrated the grand opening of his new art gallery, Gallery 85, at San Joseʼs Santana Row for an evening of art and charitable fundraising.
The San Jose Silicon Valley Chamber conducted the Ribbon Cutting ceremony as Silicon Valley CEOs, elected officials, area artists and 49ers teammates attended the opening of Davis’ new gallery on on Dec. 10.
The 49er’s tight-end hosted the Santana Row, invite-only event where he sold art to benefit his namesake organization, The Vernon Davis Foundation for the Arts. The philanthropic footballer will donate a portion of the art foundation’s sales to the Davis’ foundation, which he created to provide art education to at-risk youth and give scholarships to college art students.
A fitting location, Santana Row’s affluent community is expected to be a successful location for high rolling donors.
