I came here recently to see the group show "Animal Instincts" (Nov. 7th) which was benefiting the Humane Society of the United States. If you don't know what the ARTery is it is a small gallery inside of steel box like containers. The kind that you can see on a train. This minimal urban gallery has some pretty good exhibits. Animal Instincts has to be the best show that I have been to at this gallery:
1) 80% of proceeds went to the Humane Society of the United States.
2) Over 25 donating artist showed at the event.
3) The beautiful Chris Sicam was busy pouring away at the bar.
4) DJ and sandwiches courtesy of Veggie Grill!
5) Raffles. (we left early to see Mum so we missed out)
6) Photo booth by http://www.visualadhesive.com/
7) Amazing list of sponsors like Urban Decay and Element Skateboards.
These are just a few of the perks! The event was packed! Tracey Taylor curated a great show! Some of the artist were Industry Giant, Glenn Arthur, Alex Chiu, Ryan Clemens just to name a few. You can catch this show until Nov. 15th. Closing reception is Sunday Nov. 15th from 3-6pm! Come out and BUY a rad piece of art for a good cause! I am excited to get the owl crayon piece on the 15th when I get to pick up the piece my bf surprised me with (just one of my many rad b-day surprises) !! Pics to follow!
