Message from THIS:
“So here we are, our first opening.
When came up with the idea to do THIS we had no idea how many people would get behind us and be excited about what we are trying to do. It’s been a really amazing experience already, and we haven’t even opened our doors yet.
Tomorrow night, Friday February 12th, is our inaugural event. A group show of our closest friends. We did this whole thing to showcase
our friends, the ones we already know and the ones we are going to meet.
Thats what THIS is all about.
In addition to our opening show Friday night, we will be opening our doors for the NELA art walk happening on Saturday, go to http://www.nelaart.com/ for more info.
We’ll also be having a little BBQ get together for the families and kids on Sunday the 14th from 12-3PM so all of our kids can meet and get to know each other.”
New series of work by LA photographer Alex Prager.
Musical guests The Petrojvic Blasting Company will play some sweet Baltic music at the after party.
