There are few artists for whom I will drop everything I am doing to see their handiwork and one of those people is Miranda Sharp, co-owner of the newly opened Glitter Milk Gallery on the West Side of Grand Rapids, who has curated the new show Die Cut that opens on Saturday night.
Sharp, along with partner and furniture artist Josh McVety, is celebrating the grand opening of the new space with a fresh twist on the gallery show. Starting Saturday, Sharp brings together a collection of artists who are creating stickers that can be purchased and later distributed as the collector sees fit.
Not only does this show feature a style of artwork that is a fitting reflection of Sharp's early years as a young designer studying at KCAD (pronounced now as "Kay-Cad," according to sources within Kendall), but this show is also a chance to start with a manageable project, since McVety and Sharp just moved into this new space a few weeks ago.
Participating in this first show are Anastasiya Metesheva, Anthony Carpenter, Brogan Coral Kingsley, Cheyenne Federiconi, Hannah Kennedy, Hong Meow, Justin C. Henry, Karina Rehrbehn, Mary Winkler, Matthew Hansen, Ricardo Gonzalez, Sera Stanton, Shivana Sookdeo, and Stephanie Kenzie.
Other things to consider: Glitter Milk Gallery will be featuring special artwork giveaways, refreshing beverages provided by Brewery Vivant, and delicious (and sure to be colorful like Sharp) cookies by The Cakabakery of Eastown.
Admission: Free
