The 21st Annual Post-it Show is a group exhibition at GR2 Gallery, running from December 6 through December 14, 2025. This long-running and highly anticipated showcase features original artwork created on Post-it notes, transforming everyday materials into collectible miniature works of art.

The exhibition highlights special 10 x 10 inch pieces, while the iconic 3 x 3 Post-it artworks will be available for purchase in person at GR2 Gallery starting on opening weekend. A preview session will take place prior to the official sale, allowing visitors to view the full collection before artwork becomes available to the public. Any remaining Post-it works will be offered for online purchase following the opening weekend.

Held in the heart of Sawtelle Japantown, the Post-it Show brings together a diverse mix of emerging and established artists, each contributing their unique creative vision within the small but expressive Post-it format. Organized by Giant Robot, the exhibition reflects the gallery’s ongoing commitment to accessibility, cultural creativity, and community engagement.

Gallery visitors can expect an eclectic visual experience, with walls filled edge-to-edge with Post-it artworks spanning a wide range of styles and themes. The intimate scale of each piece invites close viewing and personal connection, encouraging visitors to slow down and appreciate the detail and individuality of every work.

Beyond the art itself, the Annual Post-it Show continues to serve as a community-driven event that strengthens connections within the local arts scene and the broader Sawtelle Japantown neighborhood. The exhibition stands as a celebration of creativity, collaboration, and the power of art to bring people together-one Post-it at a time.
