SHOEBOX
If you say you don’t care about shoes you are either insane or a liar. Possibly both. If you are a normal, self-respecting human, you’re on point with your sneaker game. Or boot game. Or heel game. Or flats game. Or one-of-the-other-million-types-of-shoe-styles game — because that’s the beauty of the whole thing: There are so many options, so many perfect little feet protectors just waiting to be discovered and taken into a loving home. Mission-based Creativity Explored jumps on the footwear bandwagon to exhibit Shoerageous, a collection of various pieces in various mediums — all inspired by footwear. The gallery, which works exclusively with artists with developmental disabilities, showcases work that might not be seen otherwise, making it that much more special. This week, the gallery has selected 20 artists to create new artwork that celebrates their kicks. An event entirely devoted to shoes? Creativity Explored obviously knows what’s up.
