Cultural Arts Council Opens New Pop Up Arts Shop for Community

Cultural Arts Council Executive Director, Davina-Grace Hill, staff, friends, and Chamber representatives, celebrated the opening of the new Pop Up Arts Shop by holding a DC Chamber Ribbon Cutting on April 13^th. The Cultural Arts Council is located at 8652 Campbellton Street in Douglasville.

A NEW visual arts development for CAC was the April inauguration of the Pop Up Arts Shop.  This incubator style program will allow one artist/craftsperson a month to sell his/her wares in the CAC gift shop.  All items in the Pop Up Arts Shop will be priced at $75 or less and the goods, which will change every month, range from miniature oil paintings to leather goods, from jewelry to folk art.  “The response to the Pop Up Arts Shop has been overwhelming – it is already booked thru April 2018,” said Hill.  “CAC hopes to provide artists with a secure environment from which they can experience retail aspects of selling their work, develop a local following and market their wares.”

Chamber President and CEO, Kali Boatright, congratulated Davina-Grace, “we are excited to celebrate this new initiative of the CAC to help promote artists within and around the community, and we look forward to supporting the Cultural Arts Council for years to come.”

Admission to the Pop Up Arts Shop is free and open to the public. For more information, please contact the Cultural Arts Council at 770.947.2787 or visit www.arts.org.
