October First Friday @ Krzyz Studio

Hey all,
 This month at Krzyz Photo, we'll have "Sibling Reverie"  sister and brother artists Leslie Norman Hubble and J.K. Norman for our First Friday event October 1st. Leslie and J.K create their individual artistic work using a combination of paint, found objects, ephemera and digital design. The yin-yang of their artistic musings is expressed in Leslie's thought provoking paintings/mixed media and J.K.'s edgy designs and assemblage pieces. In keeping with the fun festival atmosphere we will also host several artisan vendors selling handmade, re-purposed and rediscovered apparel and accessory items. Featured vendors are…. Roni Levine (Bargain Babes – clothes and accessories), Kat Nemati (Techitoes Design – jewelry), Elizabeth Schulze (Bagging Rights – handcrafted bags), Liza Davis MacKinnon (MacKomics Studio – Handcrafted designs and accessories), We'll also have musician David Patmore returning to perform again at the studio and 3 Girls Cupcake mobile cupcakery will be in the area again as well. It's going to be another fun evening. We hope to see you there!

First Friday October 1st 
5:30-9:30 pm  One night only.

Krzyz is at 1800 Locust, one block east of Oak in the heart of the east crossroads.


The Hilliard Gallery will have "West Bottoms"- New works by John Marak. opens Friday, October 1st 6-10pm and runs through Oct. 26th. "Capturing the Fleeting Sensation" is how John Marak describes his artwork.  Marak continues his creation of the abstract urban environment in his mixed media work for this show. He is further adding to this show by including some photographic works of local urban sites. These sites however are not easily recognized as they, much like his created mixed media pieces, are abstract in context but realistic in content. Regular gallery hours: Tuesday-Friday 10-5, Sat. 11-4  The Hilliard Gallery is at 404 E. 18th. www.hilliardgallery.com
