💟 VENDOR HIGHLIGHT 💟

"Hi! I'm Monica (she/her), a Mexican American artist from Columbus, Ohio, and the founder of Monalu and Moonbean Art. My work celebrates nostalgia, girlhood, and whimsicality through playful color palettes, intricate illustrations, and detailed patterning inspired by storytelling and Y2K remembrance. Through Monalu, I transform thrifted clothing into one-of-a-kind wearable art, while Moonbean Art features my original prints, stickers, and illustrated works. As an artist, I'm interested in exploring the longing to return to childhood through pieces that feel personal, sentimental, and joyful, inviting others to reconnect with memories, imagination, and child-like wonder."

Go check out @m00nbeanart & @monalu.co and come shop with over 30+ vendors on August 30th at the Passion 4 Fashion Fest! Tickets available NOW through the link in bio! 🛍️👠✨

A glimpse before you step inside “It Was Never Just Then”.

Just a reminder that the senior visual arts exhibition is coming up, opening Friday, April 24 (4:30-6:00pm) at the Denison Museum.

Through the glass doors, you can catch a first glimpse of the exhibit before stepping inside.

Swipe to meet the artists, the Class of 2026 Visual Arts seniors, and to see the names that shape this exhibition. Across painting, digital design, installation, sculpture, and fibers, each artist explores how memory, identity, culture, and material practice continuously reshape what we carry forward.

Join us for the opening reception and experience the work in full.

Also on view:
Friday, May 1 - Denison Museum Gallery Talk (2:30-4:00 pm)

The events are free and open to the public.
