Celebrate Local Talent at the Pop-Up Art Gallery Featuring Christi Anderson
Holdrege, NE – January 21, 2025 – The Iron Horse Arts District is thrilled to announce the opening of its next Pop-Up Art Gallery, showcasing the inspiring works of local artist Christi Anderson. Join us for an evening of art, conversation, and light refreshments during the opening night reception on Thursday, February 6, 2025, from 6:30-7:30 PM at Coal & Feed Coffee and Vittle, located at 612 4th Avenue, Holdrege, NE.
Christi Anderson grew up on a farm near Holdrege, cultivating a passion for painting and drawing from an early age. Her artistic journey blossomed into a career after earning a Commercial Arts degree from VTI Career Institute. She worked in printing and graphic design, where she created logos, ads, and print materials, and spent ten years as a member of Grow NE, crafting unique hand-painted glassware.
Christi’s entrepreneurial spirit led her and her mother, Carol O’Connell, to open The Red Shed, a beloved retail space that featured collaborations with 30 consigners. More recently, Christi has been focusing on creating stunning pencil drawings and acrylic paintings of landscapes and florals. Her works have been displayed at The Brickwalk Art Gallery in Kearney, NE, and she continues to delight clients with custom commissions that celebrate special places and cherished memories.
Selected pieces from Christi’s collection will remain on display at Coal & Feed Coffee and Vittle throughout February for those unable to attend the opening night.
Don’t miss this opportunity to support local talent and connect with an artist who brings beauty and inspiration to the community.
