Amongst the slew of cocktail bars and their Christmas-themed creations, artist and Cresskill-native Marco Santini joins the masses with Art with Heart in Edgewater, a gallery and gift shop pop-up in the City Place Holiday Pop-Up located next to Panera. Fresh off the heels of Art Basel, the New York-based artist is most known for his geometric aesthetic and ability to layer different colors and textures together. Santini’s work has been featured in magazines and galleries across the globe, with his latest venture taking him to New Jersey’s Gold Coast.
For those interested in seeing Santini’s work in person, Art with Heart in Edgewater is open to the public on Fridays from 2-7pm and Saturdays from 12-6pm through December 21st. The shop will include a variety of clothing, art and accessories featuring Santini’s signature One Love logo. The logo itself includes the word “love” written in over 50 languages, meant to indicate our unity as a human race.
If you’re looking to make a day out of your City Place outing, the Holiday Pop-Up will offer an array of family-friendly activities including sing-alongs with Santa, free tastings and an opportunity to have one’s photo taken in front of Santini’s mural. Goers will also receive a free gift with purchase (while supplies last) courtesy of City Place.
