Rosebud, A Satellite Gallery
In 2015, I introduced a pop-up, temporary gallery called Rosebud to the city of Waltham, MA. Rosebud acted as a satellite gallery of The Rose Art Museum, and aimed to activate public engagement with contemporary art through exhibitions housed in an underutilized property in the city. The gallery was purposely sited next to Waltham's City Hall, public Common and the Public Library. Programs hosted at Rosebud included not only Brandeis classes and artist visits, but drawing sessions held by the Waltham Mills Artists Association and a filmmaking workshop by the AgX Film Collective. The gallery presented a range of video exhibitions, including the U.S. premiere of Theaster Gates' "Gone are the Days of Shelter and Martyr".
