Artstream Nomadic Gallery is a 30 foot 1967 Airstream travel trailer remodeled into an exhibition space. Created in 2002 by potter Alleghany Meadows, the project places art into both physically and conceptually accessible contexts. Artstream has traveled the country from Los Angeles to Providence, Houston to Minneapolis, bringing contemporary ceramic art to streetside locations at museums, universities, art centers, farmers markets and ceramics conferences. The airstream, a gleaming icon of mid-century American design, attracts people who might not otherwise venture into a traditional museum or gallery. Artstream is staffed by artists who are represented in the exhibition, enabling patrons direct interaction with the makers of the objects
