NEW YORK—31Grand is closing after nine years in operation, the gallery has announced via ArtCal, and will finish with an exhibition at its Lower East Side space called "Death Is Not the End" that will run only from 6 to 9 p.m. on December 20. The show comprises work by artists "from all stages of 31Grand's past and present" — including Barnaby Whitfield, Helen Garber, Maureen Cavanaugh, Michael Pope, and Paul Brainard — each of whom was invited to choose one piece to display.

The gallery was founded in 1999 in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, by owners and co-directors Megan Bush and Heather Stephens; it moved to Manhattan in 2007. After closing, Bush will continue her work as an independent stylist, while Stephens will continue to art direct at the Wall Street Journal and is joining Chelsea's Black & White Gallery.
