Pop Up Galleries Workshop

  • Prøve Gallery 21 N Lake Ave Duluth, MN, 55802 United States (map)

Join us for a collaborative presentation on activating vacant commercial property with temporary visual displays, aka "pop ups."

Joan Vorderbruggen will share images and storytelling from her project, Made Here, which is the largest storefront initiative of it's kind in the nation, currently hosting 38 visual displays over 16 city blocks in downtown, Mpls.

Jami Rosenthal who leads Duluth Pop Up Galleries will also give an update about this project that hopes to add to the beauty of downtown Duluth with the help of local artists! This project produces galleries in storefront windows that are accessible anytime, day or night, and appealing even to those who might not usually engage in art spaces.
