The last INSPIRE Popup was December 17th, 2019, at Night Lizard Brewing Company, 5 to 8 pm, 607 State Street. It was a fun evening. Unfortunately, due to organizer Penny Little’s accident (hit by a car as a pedestrian legally in a crosswalk) and the COVID-19 “Pandemic” there are currently no upcoming INSPIRE PopUps, and there are no plans for “virtual” pop-ups because the POPUP is all about being present together, face to face, not screen to screen.

I’m getting excited about all this. It started out as a release party for my husband Nik Green’s CD which I completed for him after his passing, and grew into a collaboration, first with Oniracom at Onifest 2019, and October 15th at Uncorked. The vision is coming together and developing.
Claudia Bratton, Carlos Cuellar, Penny Little, Andrea Anderson, Tabitha Bergenson at Onifest 2019 presented their art and wares as part of INSPIRE Pop-Up. This event was a collaboration with Oniracom.
