Shiver Me Timbers?

So Some of you left with 20 minutes left of class and meanwhile 6 of your classmates love "Shiver Me Timbers" as the title to the show. Also, Amelia, Julia, Joe and Denise are heading over to the True Value Hardware Store on King Street tomorrow to ask the owners about the show happening there instead of in S-3. Check the comments from the last post for the time. I'm cool with changing the show date if it serves the work better. Especially if it helps to promote a local business. I don't shop at that hardware store but might if you all put a show up there and lead me in! ART WORKS! Thanks to Joe and others IF THEY FOLLOW THROUGH!!!!?????
Either way the show is gonna rock. Check the video and see how much effort is going in.
So.........Shiver Me Timbers? is that the show title? If so start facebookin it yo. Flyers!!!!! Amelia, Julia, Joe and Denise tell us all the good news as soon as you hear it!!!!! With Dates. Is it still on a Wednesday? Please make use of studio time on Wednesday. If I'm not there it means I'm not talking and taking up your time working which means you are kicking it old school and getting much work done!!!!!
Later,

  2. I like the hardware store idea. I think we should really set everything up first and not rush. Like we discussed in class the projects can be due on the original date, but the show can happen later in the semester. If we're going to have it at the hardware store during an artwalk we should take the time to make sure everything is awesome. This would also give us lots of time to spread the word! (Chris Boston)

  5. damnit i was going to post it! but yea KC was offering all kinds of support, even without us talking about the future prospects and deals. He offered us the front windows and said stuff can be moved around. As this is a hardware store, he has floodlights and drop clothes which would help transform the space. There is also a warehouse section attached to the store in which I think we could store the sculpture and any stands or pre-work for the show. In the center of the store is the checkout counter which would be awesome for food or music.

  9. So does this mean we are waiting to have our show until the first Friday of April? Then are we just going to show are 2x4 project or are we going to open it up to other things, since we have a lot more work done.

  10. April is a ways off, so I think we could put some more work in if the show's going to be on artwalk—and the hardware store is a great idea. Glad you all liked 'shiver me timbers' ;-). Jen, you could totally pull off a bow tie. If music isn't lined up yet, I can talk to a couple musicians that I know. . .see you guys in class in half an hour.
