Sneak Peek
I’m Barry Schmetter, one of the Art Reactor resident artists, and the co-space manager along with painter Ric Garcia. We have some great plans for Art Reactor and like most great plans–it begins with cleaning and spackling. 
We’re going to be turning the space into a cool workshop/studio/gallery space over the next few weeks and we’ll be having our kickoff in January. In the meantime, this Saturday (December 12), we’ll be hanging out, handing out flyers and introducing the space for those of you that would like a sneak peak. Who knows–we may creating some art and ask you to help–or just scrubbing the bathroom. Hope to see a few of you on Saturday and in the meantime, here are a few “before” photos to give you a sense of the space.

It begins!
The art reactor has begun! Yes. That’s right. We now have a space, and over the next month or so we’ll be in set up and organizational mode, moving like mad men, artists, or what ever you’d like to call us.
We now have a space just 2 miles out of Washington, DC in the Hyattsville Arts District by EYA, which is right inside the Gateway Arts District. We’ll be located at 5614 Baltimore Ave, Hyattsville, MD 20781 .
We see a future of amazing art workshops from photorealistic painting to large format alternative process photographic portraiture! Ideas for our syllabus are overflowing from the brim of our creative cup. It’s almost painful delaying a post of the things to come, and the great future that will come from this space, something unknown, and new to Prince George’s County, and the DC area for that matter.
Pics of the space to come soon!
