ABOUT:
Pop Up Research Station is a consortium of art consultants who host a weekly online virtual (zoom) cafe. We have conversations about temporary public art, creative place making, pop ups, urban planning, art in storefront programming, artist owned artist housing, mutual aid, and creating a financially sustainable life doing the work we love. We envision the cafe as a portal for shared knowledge, a resource of best practices, ongoing professional development, and a place for moral support to enhance our collective impact.

Cafe Menu: Our weekly menu of topics is co-created by those who attend that week. To see what is happening next week and/ or to add your own topic visit our cafe menu.

PODCAST at Creative Conversations, hosted by Alpha Bruton
Pop-Up Research Station invites your participation.
Phantom Gallery Chicago and Phantom Galleries LA have come together with the intent to create a network of support for artists, curators and arts organizers who are engaged in temporary public art installations, in storefronts and projects that engage community response. We envision the project as a portal for shared knowledge, a resource of best practices, ongoing professional development, and a place for moral support to enhance our collective impact.
The Pop-Up Research Station is a place to glean information. We see the Pop-Up Research Station as the portal to documenting our legacy, giving emerging curators and artists, new to the world of creative place making, a “Tool Kit” that has already been 20 years in the making, researched, developed, and implemented by artists who have carved out niches and built new communities from empty storefront to monthly art walks.
GYST Radio on Blog talk covered a snap shot of artist stories, host real discussions on the problems we face, offer a support system as well as soliciting advice on how to avoid the potholes moving forward. The interviews done for GYST Radio on Blog talk were conversational and geared toward the artist’s mindset, but will be helpful for those interested in our projects as a research tool.
We believe that we will thrive when we find new ways of pooling our resources rather than duplicating them. Together we can bolster our ability to achieve our goals as we mentor and support each other.
