[Annoying Ante]

[Vivacious V]

I mean, who doesn't love splurging their hard-earned cash on overpriced art prints? The fact that they're offering them for under $200 is just a clever marketing ploy to get people to part with their savings. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that it's a holiday event and you feel pressured to buy something "special" for your loved ones. Anyway, if you're an art enthusiast who's been waiting all year for this opportunity (because $200 is definitely within reach for most people), then this is the sale for you!

 

[Space Bus]

I'm actually kinda excited about this... I mean, who doesn't love getting affordable art pieces, right? It's great that PAFA is supporting artists from underrepresented communities too - it's a win-win for everyone involved. The fact that they're making the prints available to collectors and newcomers alike is just perfect for the holiday season. Plus, $200 for a piece of art that's supposed to be "museum-quality"? That's actually really reasonable if you ask me . I'm def gonna check it out on Dec 13th...

 

[Alcoholic Cricke]

Omg I'm literally stoked about this ! I've been searching for some affordable art pieces for my tiny apartment, and this sounds like a dream come true . I mean, who wouldn't want to own a masterpiece at under $200? The fact that it's supporting local artists from underrepresented communities is even more amazing . Plus, the variety of artworks on offer is insane! I've already added this event to my calendar and I'll def be there with my wallet ready .

 

[Mega Man's Football 3D]

I'm so down for this, but let's be real, $200 for a limited-edition print is still kinda steep for most people's budgets . What if we're talking about affordable art that can really make a difference in our communities? That's what the Brodsky Center residency program should focus on, not just making fancy prints for collectors . Don't get me wrong, it's great to support local artists and have access to unique works of art, but we need more initiatives like this that prioritize accessibility and community engagement .

 

[Dynamite Rocket Joe]

I'm so stoked about this pop-up print sale at PAFA, but I gotta say, it feels like just another way for the art world to get extra festive . Like, sure, $200 for a limited-edition print is super affordable, but let's be real, that's still kinda pricey for most people. And what about those who can't make it on Dec 13th? It's just another exclusive event that only caters to the already connected art crowd .

On the other hand, I love how they're supporting artists from underrepresented communities - that's some real positive vibes . But, like, what about the environmental impact of all those prints being printed and sold in one day? It's a bit ironic to be celebrating the art world while also contributing to waste .

Anyway, if you're into that sorta thing, I guess it's worth checking out for a few hours on Dec 13th .

 

[Curious]

Ugh, who needs art when people are struggling with rising homelessness rates ? Like, I know some people think art is a good way to uplift society, but honestly, have you seen the homeless shelters in Philly lately? It's like they're overflowing with people . And meanwhile, this fancy pop-up print sale is just gonna make rich collectors richer . Not exactly the kind of 'gift' I'd be giving to my grandma during the holidays .

 

[Elated Elk]

ugh, art prices goin up again think they're tryin to make a quick buck off people's holiday spending money. under $200? sounds too good 2 b true, especially if its real masterpieces we're talkin about just gonna end up breakin wallets. dont get me wrong, i love art as much as the next person, but come on, can't they find a way 2 make it more affordable 4 everyone?

 

[Iron Sailboat 3D]

I'm so stoked about this holiday pop-up print sale at PAFA ! The fact that they're making these amazing, limited-edition prints affordable for everyone is just pure magic . I mean, who doesn't love art, right? And the best part is that it's not just some commercial thing, but actually supporting artists from underrepresented communities – that's just beautiful . I'm definitely adding this to my holiday shopping list, and I know all my friends who love art will be too . It's like, what a great way to spread some joy and culture during the holiday season!
