TAKE A LITTLE PIECE OF MY ART
🎨❤️ A Birthday Art Show & Celebration of Creativity, Connection, and Giving. Come celebrate another year of life, creativity, friendship, and all the beautiful things we have to share. Make something. Share something. Find something. Feel something. Take a little piece of someone’s art home. ❤️
For my birthday this year, I wanted to do something that brings together the things I love most: art, creativity, friendship, generosity, and connecting people. So I’m hosting an art show called TAKE A LITTLE PIECE OF MY ART in a beautiful creative space in the LA Fashion District — a place to discover, celebrate, and share creativity. I’ve been creating canvases to give away, and I’m inviting my wonderfully creative friends to join me, too. Paintings, pottery, photography, jewelry, clothing, cross-stitch, illustrations, handmade treasures — whatever you create, there’s a place for it here. Some pieces will be gifts to take home; others may be on display or available for sale. Each artist gets to decide how to participate!
❤️ Find something you love. Explore the art, meet its creator, and discover something that speaks to you.
❤️ Give it a heart. For pieces marked as free to take home, hang a heart on the piece to claim it. It’ll stay on display until you’re ready to leave.
❤️ Leave a little love. Take a photo with your piece, record a short video, or write a note telling the artist what you loved about it. They’ll get to keep that memory of where their art found a home.
❤️ Take a gifted piece home, or support an artist by purchasing a piece they’ve chosen to sell. Hopefully make a new connection along the way.
Want to share your art? I’d love that! You don’t have to be a professional artist, and you don’t have to give anything away. Bring work to gift, showcase, or sell — whatever feels right for you. Don’t make art? Come anyway! This is just as much about celebrating, discovering, and connecting as it is about creating. Bring your friends! The more creative energy, the better. I’d love for you to introduce me to people you care about and for everyone to meet someone new.
No birthday gifts, please — just your presence! If you’d like to give something for my birthday, we’ll be accepting optional donations to Connectopod! No donation is required to take home a piece marked as a gift; artwork offered for sale is priced by its artist.

For participating artists: Setup begins at 9 AM. You can bring your pieces before the party or coordinate an earlier drop-off with Gabe. We’ll have tables and display surfaces, and I’ll be bringing easels for canvases. If you need a special display, feel free to bring it!
Please let Gabe know whether your pieces are gifts, display-only, or for sale so we can label them clearly.
