KAHRI Pop Up at the Grand Central Holiday Fair
Being chosen to be part of the Grand Central Holiday Fair was an incredible honor—one that still feels surreal. Set inside one of New York City’s most iconic landmarks, the fair brings together a curated group of artists and makers during the most magical time of the year. To be included among them was both humbling and deeply meaningful.
Throughout the holiday season, I had the opportunity to share my artwork with customers from New York City and from all over the world. Grand Central Terminal is a true crossroads—locals passing through on their daily commute, holiday shoppers exploring the city, and international visitors experiencing NYC for the first time. Each day brought new conversations, stories, and connections, all centered around art.
Seeing people discover my work in such a historic setting was unforgettable. Many guests were drawn in while on their way to catch a train, only to pause, explore, and leave with a piece of original art or a print to take home. Others intentionally returned with friends or family, sharing why a particular piece resonated with them. Knowing my artwork is now living in homes across the country—and across the globe—is something I’ll always cherish.
The energy of the Grand Central Holiday Fair is unlike any other. Surrounded by the grandeur of the terminal, the festive buzz of the season, and a community of talented creatives, the experience felt both exhilarating and grounding. It was a reminder of why I create: to connect, to tell stories visually, and to make something that people carry with them long after the moment has passed.
I’m incredibly grateful to the organizers of the Grand Central Holiday Fair for selecting me, and to every person who stopped by my booth—whether you became a collector, shared kind words, or simply took a moment to look. Your support made this experience truly special.
Being part of the Grand Central Holiday Fair wasn’t just a milestone in my career; it was a celebration of art, place, and human connection during the most meaningful season of the year. I’m so thankful to have been part of it, and I look forward to what’s next.
