ART DURING COVID-19

As different areas are affected by COVID-19, art and artists are needed more than ever in our society. It's during times like these that we most need to be inspired!

We also realize that times like this can be hard for artists to get their work out there and get work sold. Because of this, Joe + I, along with the Northwest Area Arts Council, are committed to showing your work safely in a traditional space, and to also develop additional ways to ensure you and your artwork are noticed and seen. But how?

We are keeping a flexible mindset. In addition to the standard gallery dates, we have sucured backup dates to use for the Heaven & Hell exhibition, to use if necessary.  But what else?

That's not all. Art has the power to connect. In addition to the traditional gallery experience, we will have a virtual gallery feature to build your audience and encourage sales of your work. 

Joe + I are also excited to launch a new feature with this exhibition; in addition to our usual promotional videos, we will create a video walk-through version of the exhibition. Artists near and far will have the option to be included in the video themselves to talk about themselves, their process and their artwork. 

Joe + I are committed to you, the artist. We want you to thrive and for your work to be seen! Without art, and artists, the world is a lesser place, and the arts should not go down without a fight. We will do all we can do. But please, fellow artists, keep creating, engage in the arts any way possible. Stay safe, but keep beauty alive.
