Speaking of needing help, Jersey City's WFMU began their fundraising marathon on Monday. They are here on the net www.wfmu.org and on a thing called the radio at 91.1 FM. Or if you really want to help, you can also volunteer to man their phones during the marathon. The marathon ends up with an DJ-Staff Live Band Karaokee Party and also feature's Yo La Tengo's Pay to Play performance. FYI their office has Asteriods in it.
of course you can help out 58 buy wearing this
Tonight I am back at the Lamp Post. Just in time for minus 20 degree wind chill. They have great heat, I guess it's just a matter of getting there without freezing ? Bundle -up, whiskey is awaiting. Friday I am dj-ing the closing reception for Ken Vallario
www.kenvallario.com @ 919 Gallery (150 Bay St) Come in stalkers ?
It was a fuller than full JC Friday last week, even if you missed things becuase you can not be in three places at once, the galleries usually leave the stuff on the clothes line to dry for a couple of weeks. so.. Go here for a full listing. At 58, you can the visit the Liminal Offerings of Henry Sanchez, our doors with be open this Saturday from noon to 5 pm for a last chance to see Henry's show. On the 15th, we open up the 99 cent dream store with works by Maurizio Zuluaga.
Currently, Grace Van Vorst church is looking for artists to submit material for their Catherdral Art Festival and Fundraiser. Artist's have until March 9th (this Friday!!) to enter their stuff, this is a multi-medium event so whatever floats your art boat or art house boat will do. Go here for more info http://caf2007.blogspot.com and the 60/40 split details.
Art House Production’s run of Camino Real began last Friday and runs until the 24th, you can pick-up tickets through here http://www.arthouseproductions.org/ . In addition, the Attic Ensemble is Presenting Intimate Apparel this weekend check here for showtimes http://www.atticensemble.org/nowplaying.html.
If you are you looking for gigs and that a-hole at 58 doesn’t have space to book you? Don’t take it personally, you can always try Matt at Lucky 7’s, he’s looking for a few acoustic acts (singer/songwriters 1-2 people max) to play weekly at lucky 7s. And you can contact him here mdiggedy@yahoo.com. Or if you are a full band try contacting Jude at the Lamp Post for Saturday Nights or you can also contact Augie from for gigs at the Iron Monkey augie@njspeedcrazy.com on Friday and Saturday Nights.

Dear Friends,
Thanks to all who came out to my opening on the 15th. You have a few more chances to see my work and meet with me. This coming Friday, March 2nd, the gallery will be open from 7pm to 10pm. I am scheduled to give an “artist talk” about the exhibition at 8pm.
I will also be gallery sitting on the weekend days of the March 3rd, 4th and 10th from noon to 5pm. FYI, the exhibition has been extended for one more week. Come by, keep me company and bring coffee or mimosas! Hope you to see more of you there.
ALSO, please check out the much procrastinated NEW updates on my website. Yes it true…new images, resume, and statements. On the home page you can click on the links available for 58 Gallery and the JC Friday events for March 2nd.
See you soon,
Henry
