The Satellite Gallery Project is being produced in partnership with Layton Boulevard West Neighbors, Inc (LBWN). The idea of the temporary gallery project came about as an artist who had been volunteering with LBWN was looking for a space for some friends to display their work. LBWN has long been working on ways to invigorate local business districts and attract visitors to the many restaurants and shops of the Silver City District.
The Satellite Gallery Project worked with LBWN to find a property owner interested in hosting a temporary gallery space. The owner of 3333 W. National Ave., Alice Sengmanivong, stepped forward and made an agreement with the artists for use of the space. The artists would donate time making simple improvements to the space and in return they could host their temporary art gallery rent free.
