Poets Scrounged

We'd like to thank everyone who came out to hear our gang of Scrounging Poets Friday night. The general consensus was that we need to do it again, and soon. And so we shall. 

Poetry slams have their place, but I prefer a reading to a slam. A gathering of writers should be more like a gymnastics event than a hockey game. It can be hard to listen when you're competing. Friday night was a sharefest. The worders were in top form. Thanks go out to all of them and to our intrepid emcee and host, Kelley Naylor Wise.

I understand the volume of the online stream was pretty low. Sorry about that. We're on the lookout for an inexpensive sound system for these and similar events. We have a mic and stand; if anyone knows where we can pick up a cheap amp and speakers, let us know. Email us at Gallery360@outlook.com.

Thanks

Many thanks to all who attended the opening of "Artists Scrounging" last Saturday. It was so much fun filling the space, first with art and then with people. We love our artists and our art lovers.

Button Rings

You can be sure our resident jewelry artist, Kelley Naylor Wise, will always find a way to match her abilities to whatever themed show we come up with. So, this time, she has up-cycled antique buttons into Sterling silver rings. I understand she's also converted nuts and bolts into jewelry as well, but she's keeping those under wraps until the opening. Come out Saturday to discover what she's been up to.

Offering

"Offering," a collage by Mo Lashbrook, is one of many offerings presented by 24 local artists at Gallery 360.
The opening reception of "Artists Scrounging"is Saturday from 7 to 10pm.
