I had a lot of art shows canceled and I was really missing the sense of community. I spotted the hashtag #putartinyouryard and got an idea. I put plastic pockets on my fence with a piece of cardstock in each one stamped with the words “Your Art Here”. I also made a sign inviting artists of all ages to pop a piece of art in a pocket.
Well, it didn’t take long and my Burbank Neighborhood Gallery grew!
Artists came by and shared their art. If you have a way to display art in your yard I highly recommend it. It really has brightened everyone’s day and we could all use a little more of that 🙂
There are photographs, paintings, drawings, quilting, collage, and dried flowers.
So cute!
I also registered the gallery for this Saturday’s National Arts Drive.
To see lots more of the art and people that contributed pop on over to my instagram feed.
Wonderful idea! Great for kids to be a star!
How did you attach the holders to the fence?
Packing tape from the back of the fence. I used clips to hold the pocket in place temporarily and from the back used the clear tape on the 4 corners. The card stock holds the pocket flat.
