Free Hello Kitty art exhibit in LA!

Free Hello Kitty art exhibit in LA!

When I had breakfast with my friend, James, his wife alerted me to this Hello Kitty exhibit. It's free! Wow! Besides being a foodie town, Los Angeles is such a mecca for cultural awareness!

The Corey Helford Gallery is located in Boyle Heights. There's a free parking lot right in front of the entrance. Inside, the air-conditioned gallery is spacious, clean, and well-organized. It features other artists in the two side rooms. There's no need to sign in, but there's a guest book where patrons can leave a comment and a word of thanks!

I liked the cute, whimsical works of art. I didn't take photos of the eerie, spooky pieces. Along with the paintings and drawings, the 3-D items were interesting, too! For example, the crocheted Chinese lion Hello Kitty was intricately made!

If you'd like to see this exhibit which celebrates the 45th Anniversary of Hello Kitty, go soon! It closes on August 3, 2019.

We have been attending Art Exhibit Openings with Jan and Bruce for years at their always engaging Gallery. Their spacious new venue is a testament to their outstanding commitment, taste and place in the rapidly expanding Art District of Downtown LA.

We were instantly greeted by Sherry the museum curator, as we walked in. She told us a little about the artists on display. The layout was great, the artists were killer. Always love the changing atmosphere. Never dissatisfied. See you all sooner than soon.

We went to this gallery in Boyle Heights to look at the Hello Kitty show. These are works of art inspired by Hello Kitty. There was a lot of variety, imagination, and talent on display. Understandably, many of the works had already been sold, but they were still quite a few good ones for sale. Check this Gallery out for other post pop art and contemporary shows, including some graffiti artists.

top notch curation, knowledgeable yet approachable staff, beautiful space adjacent the DTLA Arts District + LA River. the incredible murals by Herakut and Ron English which adorn the eastern facade are alone worth a drive by. welcome to the neighborhood, CHG. we're thrilled to have you!

This place has everything! There are random Knick knacks that'll make you say "that's cool". They also have books, toys, masks of all kinds, Funko Pops, stuffed toys, socks, healing stones, candies, purses, and a lot more. My favorite thing is that prices aren't terribly expensive.

While it was crowded, we were able to take our time to see all of the photos and memorabilia, as well as the short film in the center of the space. We were here for about 90 minutes total and were able to walk across to the mall for lunch.

So this was our first time going to this gallery and let me tell you... it did not disappoint at all.

I mean we arrived there almost 2 hours early for the Hello Kitty art show and this is expected since you know there are tons of fans of the cat.

They had a giveaway which was nice even though it was only for the first 100. Everyone was so courteous and so nice to one another and the gallery was very big.

I got to get the art prints that we saw on Instagram and we walked around the gallery for at least an hour seeing all the cool Hello Kitty art.

Got to meet Tara McPherson which was pretty cool as I have some of the art work.

It sucked for the people buying the prints though since they only had one credit card reader and the line was around 1-2 hours from what was told.

Spacious gallery in the heart of the industrial part of Downtown Los Angeles. If you're looking for a diamond in the rough, with a little bit of grunge, this should be your hang out. They had an open bar and plenty of snacks to keep you happy and entertained, as well as plenty of art lovers to chat with and people watch.

Located in an industrial area which isn't the most appealing place for an art gallery. At least that's my opinion and that's how initially felt on my way here. As a matter of fact, I almost turned around but gathered enough courage to continue.

Finally arrived to the place just as they opened the front doors. I was really surprised how nice this venue is. It's clean, spacious and very organized. Once inside, you'll feel like you're in one of the art galleries in Beverly Hills.

I came here for The Hello Kitty exhibit which opened a few weeks ago with HK fans lined up around the block. I was glad that on the day I visited, there were just two other girls with me. We were able to freely roam around and take as many pictures as we want without any human obstructions aka photobombers.

It was an interesting collection of arts made of different mediums highlighting, of course, everyone's favorite character, Hello Kitty. Don't forget to grab the guide book in the front desk upon entry. It's very helpful to identify the artists, medium used, and the price ($$$$).

Aside from HK exhibition which by the way ends in August 3rd, there's also three adjoining rooms showcasing art pieces of different artists so feel free to browse.

Free inside and street parking. Nice and clean restrooms inside the gallery.
