Nicole Rappoli

Gallery Manager, Galaray House

Nicole Rappoli brings warmth, enthusiasm, and a genuine eye for design to her role as Gallery Manager at Galaray House. Sister-in-law to co-founder Molly Rappoli, Nicole shares a natural ability to connect with people and is passionate about helping collectors discover artwork that speaks to them, making the gallery experience approachable and enjoyable for everyone who walks through the door.

A Love of Art, Architecture, and Beautiful Spaces

A lifelong admirer of architecture, interiors, and well-designed spaces, Nicole developed her appreciation for art through travel and exploration. Time spent living in Florence, Italy deepened her love of art, culture, and historic architecture — an experience that continues to inform her perspective today. She is constantly drawn to creativity in all its forms, whether wandering through a new city, photographing striking buildings, or gathering inspiration from the world of interior design.

A Personal Approach to Art Collecting

Nicole believes that original artwork is one of the most meaningful things a person can bring into their home. She is particularly drawn to realism, landscapes, and works that create a sense of calm and connection. Her favorite part of gallery life is helping people realize that collecting original art is not reserved for a select few — it can be accessible, personal, and deeply rewarding.

Beyond the Gallery

Outside the gallery, Nicole is an avid sports fan, cheering on the Boston Celtics, New England Patriots, and, more recently, Formula 1 racing. She enjoys traveling, discovering healthy recipes, and spending time with her nieces and nephews — a role she proudly says is her favorite. Friends describe her as funny, kind, and personable, qualities that make her a natural ambassador for both artists and collectors alike.

At Galaray House, Nicole is committed to creating an environment where everyone feels welcome, inspired, and confident exploring the world of original art.
