Events

Larry Connell wanted to mention to Save the date: Wanda's anniversay of passing
Saturday night June 7, 2008, 3616 W. Wrightwood, 8 PM; 2nd floor and > back yard. A night of revelry and fun. Pass the word. Bring food and booze.

Also a note from Alan;

"Hello Artists,I want to thank you all for participating in this years group show. I also want to remind you that the closing reception is this Sunday, May 18th from 3-6 PM . Last year I allowed work to be taken after the reception, but this year there is a snag in those plans. There is a performance of Henry the Fourth in the theater immediately following the reception so the removal of work is going to be delayed. Works can be picked up after the performance (around 8 PM) or the following Monday and Tuesday (May 19th and 20th). Please plan your pick up times accordingly. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, but it is a situation completely out of my control. Feel free to watch the performance and take your work afterwards. I believe tickets are $15.Thanks for Your Support.

Sincerely, Alan Emerson Hicks"
