Emerge
208 North 4th Street,
Coeur d’Alene, Idaho
Located in downtown Coeur d’Alene, Emerge
is a collective-model art studio and gallery
serving the local community through artistic
development and education, and providing
opportunities for the public to create and
experience art.
A unique platform for up-and-coming artists,
people of all ages and backgrounds experience
art through regular classes. Events like the
Pop-Up Show; the INK! Print Rally; Dia de los
Muertos Fiesta in late fall; and artist workshops
open the door for intergenerational connections.
Emerge provides affordable arts instruction
taught by local artists passionate about sharing
their work. The focus is in promoting an
appreciation for arts and culture by emerging
artists with exhibitions, classes and outreach
programs. Having a place to exhibit and sell
one’s work is a vital component to the creative
process.
As Emerge reaches individuals with unique
art experiences, the entire community feels
the impact of art bringing people together and
breaking down social barriers while enhancing
an existing arts-based economy and arts-rich
experiences for residents and visitors.
Emerge brings unique, relevant arts
programming to the community with a particular
focus on people pursuing a profession in the
arts and humanities. Youth and adults can take
classes in photography, pottery, printmaking,
fiber art, mixed media, film, music, drawing
and painting. Class options are fresh, thanks to
ongoing recruitment of gallery artists who offer
workshops and lectures. Over the course of one
year, anywhere from 150 to 200 artists have the
opportunity to show their work in the gallery
space and/or the annual Pop-Up Show.
