Anna Todaro curates the only crawl-in gallery space in Portland (and perhaps the world). Just three and a half feet high, this space has hosted monthly exhibitions of paintings, installations and dance performances. This piece takes you inside a first Thursday gallery opening for an otherworldly installation complete with a soundtrack.
This is an excerpt from the Destination DIY documentary "Art in Strange Places," which is also available on PRX.

Review of Smallest Gallery in Town
This piece was an interesting concept: a tour through a small space gallery. I felt that the interview was a little dull, especially on the part of the person being interviewed.
