CHG: Opening Reception

July 9th | 6-8 PM |The Cope House Gallery, 1 Awbury Rd, Philadelphia PA

Join us at The Cope House Gallery for the opening reception of David Sweeny’s Make’em Stand Still on July 9th at the Cope House Gallery from 6-8 PM.

Sweeny is a self-taught painter based in Germantown, Philadelphia. His art background mainly lies in theater and music, and he is known to many as funk/rock performer Johnny Showcase. His approach to painting is an extension of his approach to music, bringing vibrancy of color,  joy, and humor to his avian subjects. Swilla is a member of the BPK Art Collective, which works out of The Braid Mill in Germantown. In his short time as a painter, he has been featured in shows at Imperfect Gallery, Attic Brewing Company, Eremita Café, and NoName Gallery in Chestnut Hill.
