Pretty Good News

I'm happy to say that I was asked to be a So Hamiltonian Fellow Alternate. Of course I would rather have been one of the ten artists who were chosen for the fellowship, but I still get to take advantage of the lecture and seminar series with the ten artists who received the fellowship. I was also informed that there would be a group show for the five alternates at the new gallery space on 14th St. that is currently under construction and is set to open sometime around June.
