End of the season

Downtown Artistry was a huge success this year with a 300% raise in total sales as well as a huge amount of artists participation.

Thank you to all the that supported us: the growing group of artists, our loyal customers, first time visitors to the shop, the city employees who made the project happen, and all who support local art and the Pop-Up revolution.  

Stay tuned to see what is in store for 2012
