FIRST FRIDAY OPENING June 5 :: 6-11p
RUNS June 5 – June 26 :: weekdays 11a-4p
Designbox is using the 300 block of W. Martins Street for the 6th annual PBaRt Show + circusSPARK Fundraiser on June 5, 2015 from 6-11pm. This unique street party celebrates downtown creativity with PBR-themed art, music, live painting, food trucks, a parkour stunt show and circus performers. The event is free and open to the public.
The PBaRt Show started in 2009 when Paul Friedrich teamed up with Pabst Brewing Company to create a one-of-kind, PBR-themed art exhibit. Over the years, the event has grown from gallery show to neighborhood block party, and now serves as the unofficial after-party for the Ignite Creativity Conference.
All proceeds benefit circusSPARK, SPARKcon 2015! and visual art exchange.
