The Unexpected Purple Cow: Pop-Up Stores and Alternative Exhibition Spaces
July 01, 2013
Today's feature presentation from the 2013 SNAG Professional Development Seminar is: The Unexpected Purple Cow: Pop-Up Stores and Alternative Exhibition Spaces by Natasha Granatstein
Natasha
describes her neighborhood's POP-Up shop program sponsored by the Danforth East Community Association. She answers the
following questions:
- What is the motivation for doing pop-ups?
- What was the larger objective of the program?
- Where to find information that will help people learn about POP-Up shops?
- How to advertise your pop-up spaces?
- How to pick artists for your spaces?
- Is some artwork more suitable than other work?
- What work should not be shown? Why not?
Think about you can apply these experiences to your own community or for your own pop-up shop. Natasha also mentioned Renew NewCastle as a model program that the Danforth community used for their Pop-Up shops initiative.
More to come in the next few weeks . . .
Each Monday for the next four weeks another presentation from the PDS will be published.
