2015 Fenton ArtWalk Consultant Melannie Chard, Inc. Featuring Diverse Artists at Fenton United Methodist July 11

Residence: Fenton, MI

Type of Art: Featuring work from a diverse group of Michigan Artists- Abstract, Figurative, Collage, Photography.

How did you get started in Art?: I spent 10 years working at Sotheby’s Auction House in New York City and held multiple business development positions, including Head of Valuations. 2 years ago, we made the decision to move back to Michigan to be part of the artistic Renaissance happening here. Since that time I have been working to create unique, curated experiences to connect buyers and artists. Art makes your life better- buy it locally!

Our next Exhibition: Will be held at the Harris Building in downtown Grand Rapids and bring some of the most exciting emerging and established artists from Detroit to Grand Rapids. The exhibition will open on August 27th and run through Art Prize.

Where can your art be found?: We feature our artists on social media as well as our website.
