There will be an opening on Friday, April 14th with a reception from 7PM-9PM at Gallery 1988, 7308 Melrose Ave. It’s free to attend, but we highly recommend getting there early as the gallery space is small and there will be a line out of the door.

Also, the exhibition will remain at the space until April 22nd and you’ll have the chance to buy the works starting on opening night and at gallery1988.com.

The rest of our listings for comedy shows, events, open mics, and maps can be found at www.thecomedybureau.com.

This past weekend, Gallery 1988 held an art show in tribute to the one and only Rick and Morty on Adult Swim. Several artists made some pretty amazing pieces as you can see above and below. 

The opening was this past weekend and had, as you can imagine, a very long line. So, if you wanted to see all the works on display, you can see them online at Gallery 1988 and maybe even buy some pieces (if they’re not already sold out).

“Old School Rules Walk Off!” by Bobby O’Herlihy 

Yes, it’s really, really, ridiculously good looking.

Gallery 1988 is, if not the best, probably one of the world’s premiere galleries of pop culture inspired art. Arrested Development, famous stand-up comedy, etc. have all gotten art tributes from professional artists and rested on its walls.
