The evening started out a bit slow and picked up after 6:00 pm…It seems to be a natural progression for most openings…People need to get home and have a bite before they head out…
In the end, the evening went very well. A lively crowd who thoroughly enjoyed the art work and asked a ton of questions about the artists…Frances Melhop’s photographs of faeries attracted a lot of attention…Guests were also very intrigued by Castelo’s technique…
Everyone agreed that the work was, not surprisingly, very unsusual for Albuquerque…A nice and interesting sneak peek at what’s being done elsewhere…
Sculptor Augustine Romero was in attendance and sold one of his unique, recycled sculptures titled Deathcart... Very appropriate for the upcoming Dia de los Muertos holiday…
We would like to say thank you to Sally Fox who gave us an impromptu jazz recital…Her voice was beautiful and the acoustics surprisingly good…
Congratulations to Jennifer Weiss, winner of the gorgeous giclee print by Joie Villeneuve titled “New York” from the Birds Series…Jennifer had the winning ticket in our raffle…Who can beat walking away from an evening of art and good food with a $75 print for only $1?
We will be raffling another work of art on November 7th…Don’t miss it!
If you missed the opening for this show, there will be another opportunity on November 7th for First Friday…As always, 5 to 9 pm…
Thank you all!
