Artist Statement
"For Your Viewing Pleasure” is a selection of hand pulled, screen-printed concert posters by Craig Updegrove. He combines graphic design, illustration and printmaking to forge posters as unique as the music of the various bands they promote. These posters are a fusion of commercial advertisements and art, digital techniques and the aesthetic quality of hand-rendered illustrations. They are designed to break from the expected, rise to the forefront of the visual clutter and hold your intrigue long enough to convey a message. They are made for your viewing pleasure.

Snow City has been showing original local artwork since we opened in 1998. We are truly grateful to all of the artists who have shared their work with us, everything from incredibly colorful quilts and marionettes
to beautiful watercolor and oil paintings.
During the winter months we host Alaska Quarterly Review on First Fridays with readings and eclectic music. Check out what's coming up at AQR
