Who We Are

Welcome to PopUpSTL.com, home of downtown St. Louis' pop-up art program! Art Saint Louis is pleased to produce this program with the help of our partners at U.S. Bancorp Community Development Corporation and the Downtown Community Improvement District. We hope you enjoy some unexpected introductions to the art and artists of our region!

WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?

Brian D. Smith. Monterey. 2004. Oil on Canvas. Courtesy of Duane Reed Gallery. This painting by Brian D. Smith is featured in the Pop-Up Collective at 1533 Washington Avenue.

Pop-Up STL is our art-inspired way of making St. Louis an even cooler place to be. We create arrangements between artists and property owners to give artists valuable exposure to downtown audiences and build attraction to and foot traffic around commercially available properties. It's a cultural, social and economic boost for a city already on the move.
