Menlo Park, CA … Pop-Up Art Show!

April 15, 2016 · Leave a Comment

I recently had a unique exhibition experience with a “Pop-Up Art Show” in Menlo Park, CA. put on by art-lover Grace R. Stewart. Grace approached me last year with the interest of offering “wonderful unique art” to the affluent community of Silicon Valley in the Santa Clara Valley, CA.

To me a Pop-Up Exhibit was a bit strange, I was use to galleries, museums and fundraisers.
The “Pop-Up Exhibit” is a new type of exhibit that offers unique possibilities to artists of offering their work in unique spaces/a new demographic and to an interested public without having to make huge upfront investment.
Exhibits are usually very expensive for both parties.

Here’s…a fabulous article in the New York Times about a Pop-Up Art Exhibition
“You Never Know Where Her Gallery Will Pop Up Next”

When I allow my eyes to be excited and fascinated and pleased at what they see, I begin a journey, inventing a path to the place I choose to go; and magic happens!
