Much Thanks to everyone who came through for the TIKI FREAKoout! I was looking forward to this evening for awhile because I know what a fun bunch all of you are, And how much timeless style you guys bring to the spot.. For some reason I'm always left feeling a little saddened the day after a show is over.. Like something I've been working at for weeks has come to an end.. but worry not we'll get to do it all over one more time for the Tiki FREAkout closing reception in August!! In the meantime we're working on putting together a very special intimate event with the artists, where you can have the opportunity to see them do what they do best! (no, I can read your mind.. it's not gonna be THAT kind of intimate!)
:P
I'd like to sincerely thank each and everyone of the artists who contributed to the exhibit, and all of the time and energy you guys put into making our walls come alive. It's your efforts that have really helped bring life to the Light Gallery! And to all the loyal fans, it's your support that helps the Light Gallery put on these exhibits and showcase these often underappreciated talents for a wider audience. All the while allowing us to do what we love, bringing together all of you for a sensory stimulating experience! We are still busy at work around the gallery, building the Ark of our dreams. Stay Tuned! Ideally the synergy we create working together will allow us the freedom to quit our day jobs and create something new daily while we sail off into the eternal happy hour sunset.
:D
A big shout out to anyone who has offered advice,shared a laugh,provided inspiration, and lent a hand or an ear. To Big Tiki Dude for setting the vibe with his far reaching vinyl collection. To our bartender Nibbler for the hangovers and bad jokes. To our mayor Ruzic for his otherworldly skills and advice, while keeping me in check. To BToe for his help bringing more talent aboard, and getting the word out. To Wildsville Man for advice, helping me stay organized, and helping coordinate everything so my my head didn't explode. To each and everyone of you for your participation, and your patience..
I haven't uploaded my pics of the evening yet to our Flickr account, but here are some pics from
944 magazine's coverage to hold you over
