Episode II - Empire Seven Studios, Strikes Back
April 30 -7:00-10pm - 525 N. 7th St Suite 10
THIS IS THE WAY
Art Show & Soft Grand Opening in Collaboration with San Jose Walls.
Did you know? In 1968, the song “Do You Know The Way To San Jose” was released and it has branded our City ever since. Around 2005, Team San Jose (formally the SJ Convention and Visitors Bureau) created the slogan “This Is The Way.” Fast forward to 2019, The Mandalorian premiered with “This Is The Way” and has become a global sensation in conjunction with Star Wars epic George Lucas films; a production seeded in Silicon Valley!
Episode II, come start the journey with us! Our first exhibit will feature artists who are participating and contributing to the longest public art corridor in the Bay Area; located on the Guadalupe River Park Gardens 2.5 mile long corridor.
Seeing murals on a big wall helps gain the interest of patrons to support artists by purchasing smaller artworks created in their studios. In this exhibit you will have an opportunity to champion your favorite artist, and purchase some of their work. Worldwide Walls and its sister cities like San Jose represent a gathering of contemporary artists that engages with the broader community in the process of creation of art. This is the Way.
“This is The Way” is the future; a slogan to be highlighted and featured in our annual exhibition, campaigns, and so much more.
