Just like the sign says, “damn, this art is fine.” The empty warehouse next to The Radical Hotel has been transformed into RAD Rendezvous, a vibrant new arts hub providing space for more than 30 artists to create and exhibit their work.

The entrance of the space serves as the River Arts District Artists’ welcome center, offering info to guide you through what’s open in the district. RAD Rendezvous is open to visitors daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Plus, there are still artist spaces available.

If you’re looking for more ways to support the RAD, each Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., you can head to the Pinegate Renewables parking lot for a weekly art market featuring works by displaced artists.

Additionally, the district is hosting RAD Resilience on Saturday, Sept. 13, exhibiting works from 350+ artists, with many pieces created in response to the one-year anniversary of Helene.
