Steve Stanley
Steve would have loved being an artist, but a lack of aptitude and red/green color blindness sent him down a path to become a research scientist and career bureaucrat in economic development. However, in 2006 fate brought Steve and Melody the opportunity to purchase the Red Door Gallery. Since his retirement in 2021. Steve has the good fortune to be able to spend time around a wonderful group of very talented artists and help bring their art to the public.
Juanita Ann Stanley
Security and Greeting Committee. Juanita is a vital part of Red Door Gallery. You can fully expect to be greeted by this sweet girl when you enter. When she is not on patrol around the gallery she can be found sleeping in one of her beds. Come in and say hi. She would love to show off her newest set of pearls or her fun new dress.
