A Number of Art sudios at the Colonial have an
Opening and a performance by All The Pretty
Horses.
I don't know about the others but we had to put a
lot of work to convert a working studio with paintings half done, coffee cans
full of brushes, and paint scattered all over, into a make-do gallery for the
basement-artists opening at the Colonial. We purchased spot lights and extension
cords so we could hang paintings on walls in the corridors. A few days before
the opening we strung extension cords on the ceiling pipes and set lights up.
The night before we got large bottles of wine and beer from
Surdyks.
The studio openings went very
well, between all of us we pulled in three or four hundred people. Later on
there was a set by All the Pretty
Horses.
Here are some pictures of the
studio, and then pictures of that that
night
