Now that CANNONCANNONCANNON (take a breath…) has closed, I just wanted to thank everyone who made it to our senior exhibition, whether you came to our opening, First Friday reception, or daily visiting hours. All the artists were thrilled about the enthusiasm we received from all visitors, art-goers, non-art-goers, Fredericksburgers and out -of-towners alike.

If you missed it (and shoo-ee, boy did you miss it: them tunes were hoppin’ and the bar-b-que was fan-tas-tic!), take a look at these photos from the opening. Later this week I hope to put up some more shots of the artwork itself (in case you were in Australia or something).

ANNOUNCING CANNONCANNONCANNON:

A UMW Honors Candidacy Art Exhibition

This year, those of us senior art majors applying for honors have taken the unusual step of taking our show off campus, in a space generously donated for the occasion by the inimitable Thomas J. Mitchell at the Galleria on Caroline Street. We’ve re-purposed the old-movie-theater-stage-turned

-defunct-purse-shop into a quirky gallery space that fits our work.

I’ve got nine works exhibited there (including painting, video, printmaking and ceramics) including the unveiling of my Dangerfield Newby installation.

The show will be on display from March 28 to April 9 (Hours: Noon-5, with extended hours until 7 PM on Fridays and Saturdays). Our opening on the 28th will feature Allman’s Bar-B-Que and a live bluegrass band. Don’t miss it!
