Post-its all around.

Last week was First Friday here in Springfield (and everywhere for that matter)…. And we at LemonDrop conjured up a nice little First Friday exhibit dedicated to post-it notes.
During the show, each work of art could be bought right then and there for 50¢ per post-it note. At the end of the show, half of what each artist made went to LemonDrop to help promote our mission to nurture local creative culture, and half went back to the artist. By operating in the manner, not only did local artists showcase their talents… but becoming an art owner was also promoted.
Thirty four local artists participated in the show, and really impressed the Springfield public. A 3″x3″ square may not seem like much space… but our artists really pushed the envelope, and made the show a huge success. Here is just a short overview.
