Rising Artists Guild and Gallery: Was a pop up Gallery I had started back in Brainerd MN that would showcase aspiring artists in locally owned businesses such as restaurants and tattoo shops. I had recruited artists from the community for the purpose of helping amateur artists build their art resume and experience and to celebrate their success with the help of community leaders. I first started by reaching out to local tattoo artists asking if they were interested in showcasing their art. We acted as a guild as I was able to take the competitive relations between tattoo artists and turn that into something cooperative by joining them together and proving to the fine arts community that tattoo artists were in fact “working artists” and were relevant to cultural evolution regarding the perception of fine art. This project both helped build relationships between business owners and it broke down barriers between the artists that are typically looked down upon in the fine arts community and traditional fine artists.
