Join us tonight, Friday January 30th, for the WE Show Art Reception! WE Labs co-founder Robbie Brown and WE Show guest curator Liza Mitchell will lead a guided tour of artwork by local artists such as Rhett Johnson, Dave Van Patten, Walter Focht, Rene Tanner, and others. What’s special about this art event is that these artists will be present to introduce you to their art and answer any questions you may have.

Together, the incredibly diverse artists represented in our first quarterly WE Show are truly a cross section of the contemporary art community, highlighting the artistic renaissance we are lucky to be experiencing here in Long Beach. From painting to photography, sculpture, and beyond, our walls are teeming with some of the most striking artwork that WE’ve ever encountered. WE invite you to join us as we bring the community and these talented people together in this intimate setting for an evening of artistic enlightenment.

If you can't make it tonight, don't worry! WE Show Art Tours will be held on the last Friday evening of every month, with different artists present at each tour. 

6:30 pm - Refreshments

7:00 pm - Tour begins

It improves visibility for Long Beach’s impressive talent pool and offers a vehicle for local exposure and networking. The Registry is open to any artist who lives, works, performs or exhibits in Long Beach, California.
