  • Comment: Hi.
    I'm sorry, but none of the sourcing here helps the subject meet our general notability guidelines nor WP:NORG at this point. All of the sources presented just mention Roberts Projects in passing.
    We need *significant* coverage in notable media outlets or by notable publishers. Examples: magazine and newspaper reviews and features about Roberts Projects specifically; books written ABOUT Roberts Projects; television and radio features ABOUT Roberts Projects.
    If those are available, please improve this submission. If not, then it appears to be WP:TOOSOON for Roberts Projects to have their own Wikipedia article.
    I hope you will consider improving existing Wikipedia content about other subjects of interest!
    If you have any questions please ask them at WP:TEAHOUSE.

Roberts Projects is a contemporary art gallery located in the Culver City Arts District of Los Angeles, California.

History

Roberts Projects was founded in 1999 as Roberts & Tilton by partners Bennett Roberts[1], Julie Roberts and Jack Tilton in Los Angeles.[2] Following the passing of Jack Tilton (1951- 2017),[3] the gallery changed its name to Roberts Projects on January 1, 2018.[4]

Roberts & Tilton opened its first space in 2000 at the 6150 Wilshire gallery complex located in the Miracle Mile section of LA, a focal place for viewing art in the early 2000's. From 1986 to 1992 Bennett Roberts co-owned Richard/Bennett Gallery.[5]Julie Roberts started her career at Burnett Miller Gallery in 1990 and later worked in the secondary market before launching Roberts & Tilton. Since 2008, Roberts Projects has occupied a former coffee-roasting factory in Culver City.[6]

In August 2020, Roberts Projects was elected as a member of the Art Dealers Association of America.[7]

Roberts Projects is relocating in January 2023 to a location on La Brea Avenue inhabiting a space that was once a Max Barish car dealership. [8]
