About the Artist

As a Cincinnati native with a passion for art and creativity, I felt there was a void in downtown Cincinnati for a nontraditional museum with interactive elements that caters to all walks of life. After traveling for two years and exploring tourism throughout vibrant cities such as Miami, New York, and Los Angeles. I crossed paths with a gem of an experience that was not yet visible in Cincinnati. As you step inside each selfie booth you thought about how to share your love for photography and art with the world, and it struck me – a selfie museum. I envisioned bringing a place where people could immerse themselves in art and create their own masterpieces with the simple click of a smartphone to my hometown. The concept excited me, but I knew it had to be more than just a place for selfies. Selfie Cincy is a museum that highlights Cincinnati based franchises, small businesses, and artists. Our presence at 1316 Main Street is designed for Cincinnati natives, tourists, families, and local content creatures to capture fun posts and share to all social platforms to promote the true essence of Cincinnati and all it has to offer. An experience, a journey through different themes, seasons, and creative elements. We spent months researching, planning, and designing the space, transforming the storefront into a world of creativity. Selfie Cincy attracts visitors from all walks of life. It is not just about taking pictures; it’s about telling stories, expressing emotions, and finding new facets of creativity. Each room is a unique chapter in the visual interpretation of our visitors' lives. As a tenant of 3cdc Main Street Pop Up Initiative we have also taken on the challenge to reduce crime on Main Street upon operating a once vacant storefront in downtown Cincinnati steps away from the new vibrant Zeigler Park. Selfie Cincy is a symbol of self-expression, joy, inspiration for community, and connection to everyone who walks through our doors. We realized that through this business, we were not only pursuing passion but also enriching the lives of others, one selfie at a time.This “why” in opening Selfie Cincy is a testament to the power of following your heart and turning passion into a thriving business that touched the lives of countless people. Selfie Cincy is not just a place; it is a museum dedicated to creativity, vision, and the belief that art changes lives.
