"Now , Sand T. is someone that you can't possibly describe her by just simple words.You just know it when you meet her in person. Perhaps ,She is one of the most unique and Selfless and most importantly a true art-loving person! The way she approaches arts and tries to help the community and the fellow artist is very different than many people in the business of Arts. Sand is a true visionary . She is a true art promoter . I truly respect what she has done and look forward for more. She is true ! Congrats Sand ,you deserve it!"

"Having been to several galleries I can say that this is one of the best I have traveled to. I love the location which is set in a quiet neighborhood and has plenty of parking within walking distance. the space itself is just right - I could almost say perfect. No I will say perfect. The curator knows how to use the space to the best advantage for both the viewer and the artists work. I have enjoyed going to see new exhibits there over the years."

"It is unusual to see an art gallery in a garage. This cozy, intimate gallery showcases many artists of diverse backgrounds and has become a point of interest in Malden. Sand T's labor of love has made this possible. Our society is fortunate to still have people dedicated to the arts instead of focusing on making money. "
Zohreh
"Sand T brings together a virtual community of artists and art enthusiasts like to no other in the history of Boston. Her artSPACE@16 community goes beyond the walls of the physical gallery itself. As a Gallery Founder she is inspirational, dedicated and leads with great sense of pride and direction. One that encourages all the community to join her and support her in her journey. Naveed Nour and I greatly admire and appreciate her one of a kind achievements. "

ernest watling
"artSPACE@16 is unique in that it offers superb contemporary art exhibits, but has no desire to make money off them. In this sense, a trip to artSPACE@16 is more like a visit to a small (tiny?) museum of art. Sand T has accomplished much in the last 7 years, and deserves as much recognition as anything happening in the galleries of Back Bay and the South End."

"In the art world there are many insufferable, self-interested types. Sand T stands out as the most gracious and artist-committed person that I have encountered. I can not say enough about the positive atmosphere that she has created to bring a great variety of artists together. artSpace@16 might be tricky to find , but it is certainly worth the effort to get there."

"As an artist I think that artspace @16 has exciting inspiring shows. Maybe it is because the gallery is a nonprofit and doesn’t have the pressure of having to sell art, maybe it is the vision of the director Sand T, or maybe it is the sense of community the gallery creates...I think it is the combination of all three!"

Christina Bechstein
"This gallery is one of those rare-gems, it introduces both new and more established artists with a gallery that is minimal, funky and down to earth. Pot-lucks after openings and performances foster a sense of community that is so important to advocacy and survival of the arts. I recommend that my college art students check it out as a model - it really is that special. - - go artSPACE@16!"
DVD
"Excellent outreach- constantly updates community and artists."
Laura Mack
"This gallery is the manifestation of a very energetic person with a strong belief in art as a community builder. Prior to ArtSpace the area of Malden was culturally deprived. I know, I grew up in Revere, right next store. And yes, this little venue hasn't changed the town too much yet, but Sand and her energy is changing perspectives. Art does not have to fit in before it can rattle the windows a bit. Go S
