SNAC Ukraine Expo
Top 20 Ukrainian Artists
Opening Reception, Saturday April 20th, 3:00-7:00 pm
Art People Gallery: 50 Post St., San Francisco, California 94104
In 2012, I was inspired to share the vibrant spirit that I had encountered among Ukrainian artists after my travels to various regions of Ukraine in 2011. Upon my return to San Francisco, together with Art People Gallery, Silvana Gallery, Consulate General of Ukraine, and active members of Ukrainian community, we reached out to Ukrainian Artists from all over the world to participate in SNAC – Social Network Art Competition.
Of all artists who submited artwork over a span of 6 months, 150 semi-finalists were selected. Then, the gallery jury selected the Top 20 Artist Finalists. These Top 20 Artists have shipped their artwork to United States and will now be exhibited at
ART PEOPLE Gallery: 50 Post St., San Francisco, California 94104
The artwork ranges from paintings, drawings, photography and other 2-dimensional art will be available for sale.
Purchase SNAC Ukraine 2012 catalog publication!
One winning artist, Tatiana Cherevan, was able to receive a visa and will be arriving to the Opening Reception from Ukraine.
The Exhibit is open to all ages. Please RSVP and check for updates at:
