Posted on July 14, 2019 by Miranda • 454 Comments

Get to know the artists, entrepreneurs, and organizers behind BevArt: The Beverly Arts Community Center. First up, Mike Grimaldi!

Mike Grimaldi/GRIMDROPS was raised in Gloucester, MA. He holds his BFA in illustration from Montserrat College of Art in Beverly, MA. and has years of experience in the creative field. He’s held a number of positions in the field including patent illustrator, graphic designer, character designer, surface designer, apparel designer and screen printer. He has a strong interest and eye in the use of illustration, hand lettering and typography in his work.

“I work part time as a graphic designer at a screen printing shop in Beverly and devote the rest of my time to freelance work including murals, live art at events, logos, t-shirt designs and gallery shows.
I currently paint in a tiny “office” in a one bedroom apartment I share with my wife and am in dire need of affordable studio space. BevArt will be an opportunity for me to grow my ongoing artistic practice in the kind of supportive, creative community that I haven’t been able to find since I was in college.”

– Mike Grimaldi, GrimDrops

On June 1, 2019, Mike did a live painting at the Nourish Beverly Festival depicting Briscoe Middle School as BevArt for the first time!
