Wow — this is exciting!

Fridge proudly presents the Blue Ribbon Dog Show at gallery onetwentyeight, a joyful, playful, and wildly creative exhibition celebrating dogs, art, and the wonderfully unpredictable spirit that makes Fridge what it is.

Featuring the work of Mim Viera, Kaitlin Martin, David Waage, Cassius Sonoquie, Jefre Harwoods, Hugh Burckhardt, Yuko K., Jason Smith, Crystal Wreden, Scarlett, Jim Savage, Toki Ozaki, “Doggie Boy” artist Eric Ginsburg, and friends. The exhibition brings together a pack of unique voices and perspectives for a show that promises surprises, laughter, color, and heart.

From expressive portraits and playful interpretations to imaginative canine-inspired works, the Blue Ribbon Dog Show honors our furry companions and the special place they hold in our lives and communities. True to the Fridge spirit — small but mighty — this exhibition embraces creativity without rules and celebrates connection, joy, and the the love of art.

Visitors can expect an unforgettable gathering where dogs, artists, and art lovers come together for an experience that is equal parts exhibition, celebration, and tail-wagging good time.

Because at Fridge, dogs and art rule.
