Throw your Name in the Hat to be Seen and Heard
We recently heard "No one wants to own, 'Dark and Dirty'. Everyone likes 'Clean and Safe'." So we are asking Poets, painters, musicians and makers of all things to own up to your dark and dirty side, from Rigoletto, to Hoffman, from forging, to reclaimed lumber... and all the other less than squeaky clean thoughts that come across your keyboard, easel or through your pen.
We are Drawing for the first round at 7:00 so plan to come early to mix and mingle and share in the holiday cheer! Artists and Musicians are invited to improvise throughout the evening... bring your easel, sax, guitar, video camera, sketchbook or whatever medium inspires you for this Ekphrastic Fantastic evening.
