    We're expanding... literally! Janine is expecting a baby in March and so the physical retail store in Art Central will be on hiatus/maternity leave for the first half of 2010. Rest assured that UPPERCASE will be part of the Art Central community for many years to come, but the focus will be on publishing UPPERCASE magazine and books as well as expanding our line of papergoods. When we’re in the studio, you are more than welcome to come in, shop our unique products, peruse the books we’ve published and subscribe to the magazine. Our online shop is open 24-hours a day. Shipping of orders continues without interruption.

    Open First Thursdays 5-9pm
    other days by appointment

    The Pudilluminator, created by Lisa Brawn, features a dancing Isabella Rossellini (aka Bella, the Boston Terrier). Camilla Engman's artwork is pictured above left, with Jenny Kostecki's framed ink drawings on the ledge. Above the Pudilluminator are Daniel Changs prints and original artworks. Each artist's space in the gallery is marked by their own Best in Show ribbon. The ribbons will be sent to the artists upon closing of the show.

    The opening night of Best in Show was well-attended, as people also came to celebrate Art Central's one-year anniversary and the Alberta College of Art & Design's Full Frontal fashion show.
