A receptive Arts and Culture Commission today extolled the virtues.. well appreciated, anyway.. the wonderfulness of this Installation. One more panel is outstanding.. health issues in Arizona put one panel back in the hands of a terrific local art teacher, Emily Goff. Hope to have it in hand tomorrow, Friday. Many thanks to each artist and folks like Glendale Arts who have included the installation on their website.

I am more and more excited about this project. The A and C Commission seems to understand that use of the Gas Station for additional projects is a good idea. With the Arts and Culture Department now under the aegis of Cindy Cleary and the Library, I hope that creative uses of not only the Gas Station but other City venues will be considered.
No RSVP for the Opening Reception is necessary. Sunday, July 1, 2012 from 4 until 7PM. Please remember about parking a distance from the Mini-Park and hiking in. Let me know if you have questions.
Thanks again to all contributing artists and supporters of this installation. Your work is truly exceptional. Artists range in age from five to eighty-eight! Participants will be credited in the windows where their artwork is hung.
More thanks, especially, to Ripsime Marashian and Teri Deaver for their support. Also, to the staff at the Adams Square Library Connection and to Council Person Laura Friedman and City Manager Scott Ochoa for their participation.
