The Pop-Up Gallery Reopens

The Pop-Up Gallery is by design a moving target. It materializes in transitional spaces to exhibit emerging and established artists that are interested in making work that is not commonly shown in Orange County. The artists bring positive attention to the community while expanding opportunities for local businesses. Landlords get traffic in their buildings, restaurants and shops get new business and the artists get an opportunity to share their work.

The Pop-Up Gallery reincarnates!



Please join me in celebrating the next reincarnation of The Pop-Up Gallery. This exhibition features the well known who quietly live among us. The five artists: Stephanie Bursese, Robert Brush, John Delk, David Freund, and Barbara Smith Gioia have exhibited widely outside of the area, but have rarely, if ever, shared their work with their local community in Orange County.
The Pop-Up Gallery's mission is to transform unrented or, in this case, transitional spaces into a gallery for a short period of time. Artists and art lovers have an opportunity to see artwork that is not often shown in Orange County while participating in the cultural revival of an economically diverse area. Chambers Street is off Broadway, almost directly across from the Ritz Theater. (Ann Street Gallery and the cafes and shops on Liberty Street are just two blocks away.) The exhibition uses the second floor of a restored warehouse that is being rented as artists’ studios.
Please come and bring your friends! This is the good kind of Orange Alert.

This exhibition features only Orange County artists. While two are new and three are long-time residents, all are widely recognized elsewhere but virtually unknown here. The Pop-Up Gallery is interested in showing challenging work that is under-represented in Orange County. Support your local artists!

The opening is on November 21st from 1-4pm.
9-11 Chambers Street
Newburgh, NY 12550

The exhibition is open by appointment until December 4th.
