Our June First Fridays art opening is by our friend and local artist Kendall Cox.  Drawing upon early to mid-20th century personal and domestic photographs, this beautiful series of prints “engages the mundane themes of mortality, memory, and repetition.”  This really is a must-see.

The Garage’s May instillation is by Richmond based artist, Sean Kelly. “Flux” is born out of a desire to visualize a personal sense of indeterminacy. Through the work, Sean strives to oscillate between the invitation of chaos and the establishment of order - a terrifying yet essential process for growth - while exploring the lines between the self and the other; the mind and the body; and one’s perception and an ‘objective’ sense of reality.  Due to the large number of art exhibits tomorrow we’ll be extending our hours until 9:30PM.

A long time favorite of ours, Baltimore based Small Sur creates ethereal indie/folk - “songs that are as close as we city-dwellers can get to the feeling of a strong harvest, songs you have to experience with your bare hands, pulling them out of the ground and shaking the soil off them” (Tiny Mix Tapes). On top of that the forecast for tonight is sunny and in the high-60’s. We highly suggest coming out for this one. Local singer/songwriter Chris Campanelli opens (suggested donation $5).

Join us tomorrow for Liz Stehl’s Roll Away Your Stone, a wall painting installation that has ended up filling the entire space, staging ”an environment for the spontaneous and fragile experience of renewal and of dying away.” Please come see it! 5:00-7:00pm.
