PaperGirl Charlotte
Friday, June 6, 7pm-10pm.
We are happy to host this event for a 2nd year. PaperGirl is where art is created on paper, exhibited in a gallery, then given away (yep, FREE) the following day to unsuspecting pedestrians via bicycle. It's a way to spread art across the community and make the idea of owning art be less intimidating. It's about creating art for the simple sake of sharing it with others. Come view the art on this evening before it's given away the next day.
