In 2016, Pink Dragon Artist Syndicate was invited to curate an exhibition with a few of our favorite "dope art chicks", as part of our East Orange Is the Newest Black Season 1 campaign. Our multigenerational show entitled Dope Art Chicks 18-82 was a smashing success with an estimated 700 total attendees! The MVA group still talks about it being their best year! With genuine enthusiasm, we have been invited to participate in the upcoming 2019 event. A beautiful 2000 square foot vacant studio with 15 feet high ceilings will be made available to stage our pop-up gallery.  As an added incentive, this year the cost of the studio rental will be generously sponsored by the property owner.
