ARTISTS AND OTHERS!
The final few panels should be in by Monday. Almost all of the sixty pieces from local artists and several distant artists are in. That is pretty amazing. That each of you has made this effort on behalf of ART is wonderful. Thank you. Each piece is an individual.
My goal now is to organize all of the sixty panels and have them ready for installation on Thursday, June 28, 2012. Personal issues have a couple of the panels a bit behind, but this is not insurmountable. Our City Liaison, Ripsime Marashian, has been very cooperative and kind. I'll address the Arts and Culture Commission on Thursday, June 21st at 2PM. If anyone wants to attend that meeting to show support, that would be great. The Commission meets in City Council Chambers in the Glendale City Hall on Broadway.
The July 1st Opening Reception will be simple: Lemonade, iced tea and cookies. At least one artist is bringing water, but this is not intended to be a pot luck. No alcohol is permitted on City Property, so if you bring something, keep that in mind, please. No loud music (though one ukulele will be on hand). This is just an opportunity to chat with old friends, make some new ones and see how sixty individuals from the age of five to eighty-eight tackled this one word assignment.
Suggestions are always welcome as long as they don't start with "What you should do is...." However, if they start with "What I might do is..." that's an idea! All ideas are welcome.
Please mark Sunday, July 1st from 4 'til 7PM, on your calendar.
See you then at the Gas Station: 1020 E. Palmer 91205
BTW.. there are no public rest rooms in the park: just sayin'..
And, parking may be problematic. Side streets may be available a short walk from the Adams Square Mini-Park. Check out the area on line to scope out the parking possibilities.
