Tis The Season... Gift of Giving.

Galerie Rheeway is introducing a very meaningful exhibition for this Christmas.

The title Art-ful SoirEe is a mixture of English and French, which means a festival with art. By opening a fairground for elegant artworks and culture lovers, we are preparing a festival that could help the children abandoned by the society.

This exhibition is directed by Children’s Institute.Inc. and Project Fatherhood.org and sponsored by an ARTISTS Agency “Ladies Between the Lines” and Ynot Foundation.

Since established on 1906, for more than a century Children’s Institute, Inc. (CII) has secured the well-being of vulnerable children by providing healing support, and resources. Project Fatherhood is one of CII’s has innovative programs and policies to support the children and the families.

Project Fatherhood is a program that addresses the problem of absentee fathers, a major social issue affecting the healthy development of a significant number of children. Project Fatherhood’s primary goals are for children to grow up safe and healthy and to become productive adults.

Ever since its opening Galerie Rheeway made an effort to show the Korean community the present state of modern art, and through these kinds of opportunity we are proud to play the center role in introducing the current culture of the main society and also giving you a chance to buy artworks from superb artists in a good price.

Therefore, it will be a very unique and meaningful event for this Christmas, which all the profit will be going to the fund for children through Project Fatherhood.

GIMME DA LOOT W/ VERBAL TAKTIKS

WHAT'S IN THE BAG?! 

Slant had noticed my work at the Crocker Museum @ Sac Town. He found interest in my work, contacted me and purchased a piece- "The Golden Voice". I figured he wanted to start collecting artwork and what best to start his collection with that piece, especially having to belong to a HIP HOP CLICK

I really admire these guys, they're young and talented. Much like me they're perusing their passion at the same time mastering their craft. They're very well versed about the music scene and the art culture that is going on in the Bay Area, which was dope. These dudes are Savvy!!! Big ups to these guys & Thanks for the Support!!!
