our april projects

Well, April art nite…was awesome! Even though it was weeks ago I can clearly remember having a really great time, and the projects being equally as brilliant. Jess from Yorkarts (one of the more laid back people on this planet) was genuinely happy to have us there. The space is perfect, and I can most definitely envision more things happening there for us; as we are warmly welcome back, so everyone think of some artistic things we could do…and let’s make it happen. It felt like this particular set of topics brought out a lot of progression of thought. There was very little “uuh, here’s my project” but more informative presentation style pieces. Very cool! Thanks to all you newbies, it was so nice to have you there. And although she claims she has no artistic ability, my longtime friend Bobbi made it to an art nite (thanks lil’ lady, it means a lot)…and I know for a fact you are creative, lets not be foolish! Thanks everyone! Woohoo, for sunshine…& bicycles! andi

york college senior GD's

I went to the "senior graphic design major's spring 2009 exhibit" last night! even though i was a little confused by the title, (i'm kidding) it was a really great show... and not that my opinion matters entirely, I was pleasantly surprised. there are some creative little buggers at that school. I haven't researched if you can view any of their work online at the yorkcollege.edu or anything, but i wouldn't mind checking some of the grads stuff out a little more closesly.
if you didn't get a chance to go to the opening its there until april 22 m-th: 8am-10pm & f-sat: 8am-5pm.
they had great turn out too, which made it harder to view the work, but easier to feel the support.
I'm looking forward to the next one!

lets go to this!

april topics: "origins" & "delusion"

Origins and Delusion it is.

so April art nite we are going to be tryin out some new digs.

next art nite will be held at YorkArts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

http://www.yorkarts.org/
check out their website they have a lot of great opportunities and all kinds of stuff going on

Address: 10 N. Beaver St.

Date: Friday April, 3rd

Time: 6:30-9ish (lets try to be a bit more timely this month due to the fact we need to leave when the keeper of the key is ready)

Bring: your art, food and/or drink perhaps?; and if you do, you may want to bring the appropriate utensils. just a friendly reminder - in case you didn't think about that part (i'll supply as much as i can)

another sidenote; this particular friday is york's first friday, so the gallery will have a bit more traffic and we will be holding the actual "art nite" or project review in an upstairs unit. Regardless; this will give us all a chance to get together, check out the gallery, dish out a little inspiration, spark up some motivation and it might even humbly open a door or two.

so all in all i think its great!

March Projects...only a couple

our march projects: rhythm & tell a story
unfortunately due to me forgetting my camera in a flurry that evening, i don't have many project photos to post this go round. My apologies...in hopes it shall never happen again. so if you want to shine your little light, send me photos of your projects and i will be more than happy to post them. (even if you couldn't attend... send me that shnitz, we're curious what you are up to) We had a great turnout and a much needed friday destressing. Great food by the way!! thanks donna S. for catering to our ever so daunting art nite needs; which mainly consist of location, a cute pet to pick on... and goodness!
thank you everyone.
