PAST EVENTS
"The Joy Store"April 2022 - DEC 2022
Located in downtown Portland, the Joy Store™ was a massive, immersive, pop-up, selfie, play-land, art experience. “Kameron Messmer’s plans were upended during the pandemic. He’d moved to Portland to start a career as a variety entertainer under the name “Daredevil Circus Wizard.” But instead, he ended up making balloon art. In fact, his giant balloon sculptures became so popular, he started getting requests for them. Now, Messmer has created a balloon art installation in an abandoned storefront in downtown Portland named The Joy Store™. “ -Oregon Public Broadcasting ”Think Out Loud” |
