Within the past year pop-up experiences have revived beloved shows like Saved by the Bell and Sailor Moon while creating buzz about upcoming season's of Riverdale and Stranger Things alike, but one campaign entitled Pop-ups: The Restaurant, wants to offer a permanent space for these temporary experiences.
Announced on Kickstarter by the California-based couple Clinton and Samantha Jones, this unconventional pop culture experience would “unite the flavors and creativity of pop culture delicacies with the excitement and exclusivity of pop-up restaurants.”
Every two months, the space would feature a different "pop-up," enabling guests to experience an entirely new world with every visit. Additionally, this concept restaurant would host "premiere nights" to mark the start of a new two month cycle.
