CoRK Artist + ASID Florida North Partnership:
In an attempt to bridge the gap between artists and interior designers, we have formed a partnership with the Masterminds artist group in Jacksonville’s CoRK Arts District. Our goal is to facilitate conversations between both groups in order to maximize the potential of art, especially local art, in the spaces we design. By joining forces and working together, we can build stronger creative communites and more meaningful interior spaces.
