Although we're located on a very busy street, while we were operating as a gallery, we found that getting people out of their car and up the stairs to an exhibition was a bit like pulling teeth. As we're located on the corner of a major intersection where there's not really much to look at while waiting for the light to change, we quickly realized that we had access to a much larger, captive audience.
Our window signs are primarily hand-painted acrylic on paper (a few are on acetate), most are approximately 30x32 inches and, with the exception of I AM A COMMODITY!, all are by Monika Pizzichemi and Michael McKay.
