Art helps us get through the challenges in the new normal. It allows us to examine what it means to be human, to express ourselves, and to bring people and ideas together.

This 2021, Gateway Gallery Pocket Museum will give new offerings for the continued enrichment and education of its users, anytime, anywhere.

The Pocket Museum will give artists the opportunity to have their artworks featured in the mobile app through Art Flex. Art Flex will feature weekly art submissions by Filipino artists based on a monthly theme.

This is open to students, amateur, and professional artists. Art Flex will pick an artwork to be featured every Friday of the month

For February, the theme is “My Home.” The theme for March is “My Summer” while the theme for April is “Cebu” in celebration of the 500 years of Victory in Mactan.

At the end of the quarter, one artwork will be selected based on listed criteria. The winning artist will get to bring home a bundle of prizes and a chance to exhibit at Gateway Gallery.

In addition, two exhibits will also be uploaded this year and the bi-monthly feature of the Gateway Gallery Art Collection will be started this February 2021. The Art Collection Feature will contain insights and perspectives of invited writers, curator, and educators.

No matter where you are, you can soak up the beauty of art. You can also explore the other features of the Pocket Museum based on your personal needs.
