“Michelle Berc doesn’t just curate art exhibits; she plans art “events,” where up to 1,500 people are immersed in hours of music and 10,000 square feet of creativity…. “It’s much more festive than a regular art show because there’s so much going on and a lot to explore,” said Berc, who aims to showcase artists in an environment as creative as they are.”
