Just Some Minor Renovations

We're trying to create an atmosphere here at Provo Studio. You know, that sort of urban industrial design art gallery sort of feel. Maybe that comes from being artists working in an industrial neighborhood. Maybe artists just have an eye for stuff that's cool.

Our first attempts to spiffy up the commons space were both noble and humble. Working with old pallets we created some space to hang our work. As spiffy as we thought it was, we knew we could do better.

So we got more pallets, hacked them up, and made them into a wall.

We also used sledge hammers to make our front counter disappear; we didn't really have a receptionist anyway. Next to go will be the old and worn office carpet.

Going green is good...except when you want to display art on your gallery wall; that tends to be more of a gray area.

Artists often hang their work in a coffee shop. Often times someone sits in the corner strumming an acoustic guitar and singing. So we built a small stage for someone to sit in our corner and play music during open studio nights.

We are pretty excited about the space we're creating at Provo Studio. Much of the work is being done by the artists themselves. So basically we're turning our commons space into a work of art. Then we are going to hang and display more art for you to enjoy during our weekly open studio on Thursday evenings.
