Enjoying the Arts on a Friday Night

Gallery Walk was last night. John had a great new show opening, featuring Jim Sampson and Sammye Dina Smith. Of course, the prints and painting were fantastic. There were also several potters, a metal mobile artist and a photographer with works on display, as well as a couple sculptors. We decided to make it a family affair. We all joined John for an evening downtown. The kids were fascinated by our favorite local folk singer, Mitch Rice, who has been enchanting each and every child since birth...and to sweeten the deal, his friend brought Charlie the dancing parrot. The younger kids sprawled out games on the sidewalk for some extra kid friendly entertainment. With a gallery full of new art, excellent food, beer, and wine, sidewalk games and live musical entertainment, the evening was quite a success.
