The Art of Sound: a(nother) evening of sound surrounded by art to benefit Big Umbrella Studios

Back purely by audience demand!!!

We couldn't even fit the audience into the space at the last show. This one won't disappoint - esp since Rose is helping me (Beja) organize and emcee!!

We're still finalizing the line-up, but have a few amazing local performers so far:
Grinn & Barrett,
Heather Normandale from StitchCraft,
Amy Peisach
Jonny Shaheri
+ a few special guests!!!

Emceed by Rose Johnson & Beja Tinsley

Please plan to come listen to great local flavor, enjoy some wine and yummy local food (by Apothocurious), and check out art work from our old & new members and a few friends...

(Artists on the walls right now: NATALIE VEGA HASS, CHAD KIPFER, THERESE AGNEW, BRONWYN DEXTER, KADENCE BAUXEITER, KAT HORN, BEJA TINSLEY, MATT NA SAL, MIM WEISBURD, REBECCA TABER, ALEX BURTMAN, CHARLIE MIRADOR, and ALGELA VLOEDMAN)

We're asking for a suggested donation ($5-20) to support the artists & musicians and keep the studio alive.

And remember to bring something to sit on if you have it (pillow, awn chair, etc), as seating in an art gallery is always a bit ad hoc!

Event date and time:

Feb 28 2010 - 7:00pm

mé·lange...Sept 2nd

Posted August 30 by Therese Agnew

About six months ago, our good friend and rad artist Fred Gray kept talking about tiny things: tiny paintings, tiny works, everything tiny. It started as a broad idea for some artists to focus on--take a break from the big money, big kahuna works--and possibly find a humble approach, well, at least a humble size. Turns out, not only did Mr. Gray encourage at least fifteen artists from the city to adhere to his 8.5" x 11" maximum size, but b.u.s. Gallery is hosting a month long show of this art in a smaller dimension. Come check out the hard work he has put into curating the show, and the work of many artists--most of whom will be in attendance at the opening reception--with paintings you've never seen so small.
