History
Established in 2019.
From 2016 to 2018, Malden PopsUp, a local artists' marketplace in an empty retail space, showed
Malden the power of community and art. Many of the artists from this endeavor established The Gallery@57, our first permanent location, in October of 2019.
Meet the Business Owner: Ose S.
Ose Schwab is a creative visionary with a deep love for humanity and an appreciation for science and the arts as vital tools in society. She is a committed community member of Malden and loves discovering the human treasure that seems to be clustered in Malden. Schwab has experience in the high tech and nonprofit worlds. She brings this and a design sense to the work of Malden Creates.
When not instigating something community and arts related, she may be found in the MATV studio interviewing a local changemaker for her talk show Inside Malden, biking to Boston, amused by her son or husband, or playing violin in some jam session.
