"Like Mother...": babysitter optional
We're about to put the current iteration of "Like Mother" to bed (see what I did there?). But before the show closes at Art Xchange Gallery, let's talk about making art while parenting.
The gallery is hosting "ProCreators: Navigating Motherhood in the Art World" tomorrow afternoon. At 1pm, we'd love you to take a(nother) look at the art before we sit down to talk at 2pm. We'll chat about being parents in an industry that rarely acknowledges the existence of family life, as well as how parenthood can transform and shape one’s artwork in inspiring ways.
And if you have children -- no need to scramble for a babysitter before you join us! Art Xchange will have games, drawing and DVDs set up in their upstairs Loft area for kids. Looking forward to talking art with you in person!
...But I got a lot of art stuff done
My housekeeping style is best described as: 'there appears to have been a struggle.'
"Like Mother": closing reception
All right, you've convinced me. You have one more chance to see the amazing artwork on display in "Like Mother" at SPACE at Magnuson Gallery.
No, really: The show closes this weekend. I'd like to invite you to the exhibit's closing reception. Details:
Visitors to the show have remarked on how much the themes resonate with them, from funny to poignant to wistful and everything in between. The Stranger recommends our show as well. Go, darling, go: you'll be so glad you went. I say this because a mother knows these things. (And because two of my pieces are in the show, but never mind that.) Go!
