Mobilia Gallery is een galerie aan 348 Huron Avenue in Cambridge (Massachusetts, Verenigde Staten) waar onder meer werk van sieraadontwerpers wordt gepresenteerd. De galerie wordt gerund door de zussen Libby en Jo Anne Cooper.
Geschiedenis
De galerie is opgericht in 1978 en presenteert Amerikaanse maar ook internationaal bekende kunstenaars. Naast sieraden wordt beeldhouwkunst aangeboden alsook textiel, keramiek, meubilair, glas en schilderkunst. Er wordt langdurig samengewerkt met musea en particulieren. Ook organiseert de galerie lezingen, reizende tentoonstellingen, de productie van boeken en publicaties en symposia en neemt deel aan beurzen zoals SOFA.
Aanvankelijk richtte de galerie zich vooral op textiel. Toen de galerie in 1988 een grotere ruimte betrok werd de focus verlegd naar sieraden.
Halverwege de jaren negentig startte sieraadontwerper Joe Wood met het organiseren van symposia. Zijn doel was sieradenliefhebbers, kunstenaars en academici samen te brengen. Er kwamen vooral mensen uit het Noorden van de Verenigde Staten en Europa op af. Mobilia Gallery steunde de organisatie met geld, tentoonstellingen en openingen.
