And they just acquired a new space in Grand Rapids, Michigan, to provide art education, resources, and a gallery that is focused on promoting living, working artists.

Check. It. Out.

Ep.89 | Mallory Shotwell – Founder and Director of CULTIVATE on local art, community, ”making it”, & marketing – Creative Ops

With the acquisition of their new space in Grand Rapids, Michigan, they'll be able to highlight contemporary artists and teach community-based art & business classes, while also serving as a "traditional" art gallery for art shows and installations.
