"Our team sees it as an opportunity for doing something new to help us revitalize the work that we're currently doing," said Neal Hilo, an artist and one of the owners of Method Made SF. "Also to take some of the lessons from the work we've done over the past year and a half, and apply those to the new space."
"I'm really excited to see how the makers with Method Made are going to grow their work and their practice with space to do that," said DeCarlo, who added that her excitement is also fueled by the thought of bringing foot traffic to the businesses around the new location. "The kind of business artists bring is a super diverse mix of people and everybody has to eat. Everybody has to get something to drink."
"Being a small business owner for the past year and a half has been really hard," said Hilo. "There's nights that I go home crying asking, 'How are we going to make this work?'"
DeCarlo sees the collaboration as an opportunity to provide more space for local artists to showcase and create their work while supporting Hilo and the other owners.
