Art hop
I always hear about Art hop since I moved to Fresno, but I have never been there. My expectation from what I heard was way different than when I visited the place. I thought it would be one great place which is a very quiet, clean and modern type of gallery. But it was multiple exhibitions around the block. The first artifact was about painting presentations and live broadcast where they had live painting competition. I was very impressed with the various talents I saw there from that comprised participants of all ages, including young participants. After that, I went to Broadway Studios that incorporates more local skills who show their work and even sell to willing buyers at an affordable price. The lighting and layout were good; however, the hygiene wasn’t appealing. There were scattered litters, empty boxes and leftovers from maintenance work at the floor and entrance.
Besides, there were some unique pieces like the chair maid of electrical boards that got my attention. I finalized my visit to Fulton Street coffee shop, where I took a grape a cup of coffee. On my way there, I was talking to my friends about how cool that place was since it had people of different cultures, and everyone looks unique. People with crazy haircuts, strange clothes. People you don’t see every day. It presents a diverse cultural environment, and everyone was happy, enjoining the live music. The only turn off I observed was a good number of people smoking marijuana, and I felt like it wasn’t safe for nonsmokers.
Art galleries offers are buildings or spaces used exclusively for the exhibition and learning about art and other cultural related happenings. I
think the gallery is an essential part of our society since it reflects about ancient practices of the community and changes observed. The gallery provides an opportunity for students to learn about diverse cultural traditions as it transcends cultural diversity and differences. Therefore, a
visit to the gallery was an opportunity for me to learn about the various cultures of Fresno people. Besides, the experience from the art gallery will be helpful in my interior design work since the gallery exhibits some ancient and current interior designs around the Fresno and U.S. as a nation. I think when we visit in number, it acts as a source of income to the local council.
