About Me

We are a tiny, tiny gallery located in the heart of Denver's RiNo District . We showcase local artists/DIYers and sell zines, art and vintage items during First Fridays and other neighborhood events. Taking a grass roots approach, our goal is to offer affordable art to first-time buyers/people on a smaller budget. You know, kind of an art yard sale. **Send us a message if you'd like to be notified about upcoming shows or would like to consign your work [website coming soon]! Photos can be viewed on our Flickr site .Located at 3047 Larimer and co-owned by April & Elliott..................................................... ............................................................ ......

My Interests

Currently accepting submissions from local artists who have lovely, affordable pieces to consign...photography, mixed media, sculpture, ceramics, handmade clothes, screen printed posters, t-shirts, skirts, undies, etc., greeting cards, postcards, buttons, zines, softies, and anything else that is awesome!!Myspace Backgrounds
