An out-of-this-world art experience is coming to St. Pete. Local exhibition favorite Populoum is hosting a cowboys vs. aliens extravaganza with the Galactic Rodeo Show on September 15 at Coastal Creative in the Grand Central District.

The pop-up show is far more than a typical gallery. The art exhibit will showcase pieces created exclusively for the Galactic Rodeo by local artists who are free to dream up anything they like reflecting the theme of the show (and this one certainly leaves plenty of room for creativity).

As always, the Populoum experience is a full sensory exhibition, and this rendition will also include an incredible fire performance by area favorite Fire Faerialist, plus a local vendor market showcasing St. Pete makers, creators and artists. There will also be a bar for drinks, and typically some of St. Pete’s best food trucks are part of the show.

To help get you there, there is a SunRunner stop directly in front of Coastal Creative on 22nd Street. The rapid transit bus remains free through the end of the month and is an easy way to arrive right at the front door without worrying about parking.
