The Glisan Window Gallery was originally started in January, 2008 when Eric Steen began placing signs out his window informing people who passed by whether his dishes were clean, dirty, or in the process of being cleaned. His window is the first thing people see when walking up to the apartment. With the posted signs, Eric's neighbors now knew something private enough about him that they might feel connected to him in some small way. After a few weeks, he then posted another sign that asked if anyone else would like to post a message in the window. The first people were from an apartment down the hall, their sign asked if anyone would share the internet. The second sign was from somebody a few blocks away. Now the window is being used to display art, collections, random items, etc. Anyone can get in touch with Eric if they are interested in using this new gallery to exhibit something. Here are some pictures of the original posts:
