6 Degrees Artists Announced!

We are excited to announce the line-up for our newest exhibition : 6 Degrees!
Thanks to everyone that participated in our call for art!


The whole month of December is dedicated to making connections, giving and sharing, and thinking about our roots. We're going to be discussing the power of the collective voice through a ton of content on the podcast, in our interviews online, and through plenty of interesting moments that will make you think about how very small, and wonderfully intimate our world is.

Today! In a couple hours! All the girls!

Francesca (left) and Jenny (right) working on putting up all of the didactics for the show at the last minute!

Well, it's the official count-down to the year end show at Light Grey! We're putting the finishing touches on the space and getting ready to welcome everyone to step in from out of the cold and be surrounded by ladies.

Jenny finished installing the pieces late last night and today we're all nerves!
Make sure that if you come by to remember to look around you! We're really lucky that a lot of the artists that are participating in the exhibition will be here tonight, so definitely say hello if you see the maker of one of your favorite pieces!


Here's a little preview of how the space is looking, pre-party!

The show starts at 7, so stop by if you're in town!
We'll make sure to post a fun recap of all of the nightly events so you can see how it went! Exciting! See you soon!


And another peek, just for fun!

Expletive Sneak Peek 2

Preview of Adam Garcia's piece

We're only a couple days away and we're holding in all of our curses til the day of.
Here are some amazing sneak peeks of another 4 talented artists & designers in the upcoming Expletive Typography Show.

If you're in Minneapolis -- make sure to stop by and celebrate the wonderful world of curses! Remember, it's from 7 - 10pm at Light Grey Art Lab (118 E 26th Street #101 - Mpls MN 55404 - On the corner of 26th and Stevens Ave).

If you wear a piece of clothing that fits the theme of the show, we'll give you a free one-night-only print, and we'll also probably give you a high-five. Because that's how excited we are.

More updates soon! Help us spread the word.

We hope you can make it!

EXPLETIVE SHOW : Exhibitor List

Preview clip of Thomas Bradley's art piece for the Expletive show. Chenille Embroidery on a Wool Ground

I have to apologize profusely for waiting this long to announce the collection of artists for the Expletive Typography Exhibition and Poster Show : Ugly words to admire. You have my permission to curse in my general direction (which would be fitting for so many reasons).

A huge thank you to everyone that came out and posted a link to your site! It was a hard decision and we will encourage all of you to come back and submit your sites for our future shows. For this show in particular, we were looking for a great assortment of designers, typographers and illustrators that love type (who may or may not be particularly fond of colorful words). We initially sent out some super special invites to some of our favorite designers before the official call for entries, then followed up the invitations with our official call for art!

I'm extremely proud to announce the exhibiting artist list for the
EXPLETIVE show:

There's no doubt that our walls will be filled with the most beautiful dirty-words you've ever seen. So! Mark your calendar for FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 14th from 7 - 10pm.
We'll have floor-to-ceiling posters, dirty food and music that will make your grandmother disapprove.

ALSO. Do you own a piece of clothing that would fit right in with the theme of our show? If so, wear it to the opening and we'll give you a free special edition print!

Help us spread the word! More updates to come!
Thanks again to everyone that submitted your link and to all of our participating artists!
