Art Exhibit at Bungalounge, Currently Featuring Work by Howard Schoor

When it comes to The Bungalow Hotel, it's all about art, culture and design. So it only makes sense that their elevated cocktail bar, Bungalounge, is an extension of that vision by having a rotating display of artwork by local artists throughout the space. Currently on display through October is the Trainglist artwork by Howard Schoor, whose passion for bold angles and shapes is what motivates his creativity. So head on over to Bungalounge, open Thursday through Sunday, sip a delicious cocktail, and peruse the exhibit!
