What is “UnZip 07”? On Saturday, Sept. 20, from 5-9 p.m., Wunderkammer Company will launch a new community event, “UnZIP 07: A Pop Up Gallery Hop”. The new community event will serve as a magnifying glass to showcase the great venues, art, music and food found every day in the corridors of this amazing Fort Wayne ZIP code. The event will feature continuous trolley transportation between seven anchor locations (note some stops will be close enough to walk to) and each 07 space will be bursting with a pop up art gallery, incredible atmosphere, live music and fantastic food.

UnZIP 07 tickets are $7 in advance and $10 day of the event. Advance tickets are available at Squareup.com and will allow the ticket holder access to trolley transportation from 6-9 p.m., featured locations and a special after-party at The Philmore on Broadway. The food is available on a pay as you go basis. Tickets purchased online will need to pick up their wristbands at Wunderkammer. Day of event tickets/wristbands will be available at all locations.
