Fountain Street has launched "The Sidewalk Video Gallery," a public viewing gallery for video and other digital media art. Exhibitions of short, silent, experimental work will be displayed on two 50" monitors facing out from gallery windows at sidewalk level. The programming is designed to promote diversity and include a broad array of artists, styles, thematic content, and levels of experience.
