Another day, another space

Today I will be meeting with another building owner, though, this one seems a bit hesitant over the phone I am anticipating convincing her of the positive aspects of us creating this artwalk.  With 2 verbal agreements so far and the village approval, things are getting very exciting in downtown Plainfield!

Christine has already prepped you for your first visit to our upcoming artwalks... and she was "spot on."  (I actually did have my hair dyed purple back in October... and after reading her post, I am considering once again, just for fun.  Business first though, who takes artists seriously when they walk in with all those qualities asking for a free space?  It's business attire today for me.)  So, when you come out for our very first FIRST FRIDAY artist receptions (either starting in May or June), you'll know what you're looking for.  Thanks, Christine!

Yesterday, I had a bit of a challenge getting past a gatekeeper leasing agent.  I may have to find a back door... but if you read my previous post "to no avail" you'll guess that I will succeed in doing this.  We'll see; wish me luck.

An sneak preview on show information... we have begun planning shows for these spaces as the time is nearing and I am happy to report that we may have one show up with some BIG artist names!  (tentative, as is everything at this time, but it looks promising) as well as an Art Cube Studios' student show and solo exhibitions of course.  The shows are already lining up!  And... we have an expert curator/preparator to help teach us proper gallery preparation and hanging techniques.

Thanks for joining us, post your comments, spread the buzz, and watch us make history!
