7th Art Collector Starter Kit - Group Show
2020-11-14 19:00 - 23:00 | Corey Helford Gallery, 571 S Anderson St (Enter on Willow St), Los Angeles, CA, 90033
The extremely popular Art Collector Starter Kit group exhibition returns with all new 12” X 12” works from an exciting line-up of new and established New Contemporary artists. The motivation behind an exhibition of all 12” X 12” works stems from the fact that newer collectors, or enthusiasts, who have never bought an original piece from one of their favorite artists, may now do so. CHG continues to pursue its mission of spreading the joy and satisfaction of art appreciation and collection to the larger public.

November 14th, 7pm-11pm: Opening Reception.

The gallery will be hosting a Virtual Opening on Instagram Live (@coreyhelfordgallery) on Saturday, November 14th @ 3 PM CST

Saturday’s live streaming event will give fans a visual tour of each show making its debut and feature special appearances by several of your favorite CHG artists (using a split-screen view), who will be sharing insight into their new works and fielding questions.

To request an advance online preview, email jch@coreyhelfordgallery.com.

The exhibition will be open as mandated by social distancing rules at that time. We look forward to being open in a responsible and safe way.
