December in the Arts District
It's December 2012. If the Mayan Calendar is to be believed, something seriously cataclysmic is supposed to happen on December 21st. The Doomsday Preppers seem to be pretty well prepped. Gloom and Doom have settled in for the Believers. Some of the Believers believe it may not happen after all. Some people think it's already happening, what with such events as Hurricane Sandy unleashing itself upon New York, New Jersey, and neighboring states.
What does it all mean? We'll find out when we get there. In the meantime, maybe you'd better get your Christmas shopping done early. And the upcoming First Friday Gallery Hop is the perfect opportunity to head down to the Downtown Arts District and do some major shopping!!
The Arts District is certainly beautiful this time of year. The traditional city decorations of Moravian Stars and greenery grace the street lights. Shops and galleries have spruced up their window displays with all manner of Xmas lights and trees and new works by local artists. If there ever was a time to Shop Local,
NOW is the time. Your gift dollars are appreciated on several levels by supporting the local economy; the Downtown Arts District; your favorite art galleries and shops; and some talented local artists.
Many shops and galleries hold extended hours during the month of December. And they're all stocked with a wonderful array of art and craft in all price ranges.
Of course, for Gallery Hop, everyone will be open from 7 until 10 pm, many with opening receptions for artists being featured in their December shows.
Three of Winston-Salem's most celebrated arteests come together to bring you lighthearted visual magic for the holidaze... Come join Gaby, Millicent & Liz for the best gallery hop of the season & the unveiling of a whirlwind of whimsy!
"Pagoda" a new bead embroidery pendant was recently completed by Julie Huneycutt Knabb. The inspiration was a handcrafted glass cabachon made by Diane Cain.
Other new works can be found at Art & Artifacts in Blowing Rock,
NC, as well as at Red Dog Gallery and The Fiber Company in the Downtown Arts District of Winston-Salem, NC.

Planting Art in the Community

Inter_Section Gallery and Art Space is excited to announce the opening of
STILL "Planting Art in the Community"...the SEED collective has re-grouped yet again!
Please join local artists Woodie Anderson, Peter Spivak, Dave Urena, Millicent Greason, Laurie Russell, Nicole Uzzell, Mike Duggins & Clark Whittington for a group show at the fabulous INTER_SECTION Gallery. A diverse representation of cutting edge artistic styles, this group never ceases to amaze.
SEED began in 1998 as an artist collective with the goal of "planting art into the community." The original members' vision was to create an open, free-thought space where the presentation of art and expression is the primary objective. The members named the group after they discovered that
the building had originally been a seed warehouse.
The diverse mission and the organic format of SEED programming is a direct extension of the personalities of our eight members, who conspired to present this show. Please visit www.seedgallery.org for more information.
Exhibit Opening:
Friday, November 2nd, 2012 7 - 9 pm
Exhibition Dates:
November 2nd - 30th, 2012
Gallery Hours: Tues- Sat 12:00 pm - 5:00 am

First Friday Gallery Hop is November 2nd....
First Friday Gallery Hop is coming up....Gallery Hop is a monthly event organized by the Downtown Art District Association (DADA). The November Hop often promises wonderful shows and exhibitions, not to mention a vast array of very giftable art and craft in the various shops and galleries all around the Art District. This month's edition will no doubt live up to the hype. November Gallery Hop E-Newsletter
Unleashed Art Center is an AFAS group event, teaching and exhibition space. AFAS also has a beautiful gallery at 606 N. Trade Street, the Red Dog Gallery. Plus, AFAS is the driving force behind the Arts on Sunday Festivals, which just completed another successful series. AFAS = Art For Art's Sake. They have a newly redesigned website that you may want to check out for more information about the organization and its other programs. www.theafasgroup.com.
The Delurk Gallery will have an opening November 2 from 7pm-10pm. Our Featured Artist this month will be our own Clark Whittington celebrating fifteen years of his famed international art project Art-o-mat. The Art-o-mat project, based here in Winston Salem, NC, has reclaimed the old cigarette vending machines of yore and repurposed them to bring international art and artists to people all over the world. The Art-o-mat project brings together Whittington's brilliant creative design, inspired artwork and love of both the arts and artists to a perfect union. This is a celebration of both him and his glorious project. The show will include machines, memorabilia and artwork from artists who have contributed to the project over the last 15 years. The show runs through December 4th. www.delurkgallery.com

At the Electric Moustache
The Electric Moustache is a gallery over at The Werehouse, located on the eastern side of downtown, alongside the railroad tracks at the corner of 3rd Street and Patterson Avenue.
Opening during the Gallery Hop on Friday, October 5th is a show that includes works by two of the architects associated with Trade Street denizens Walter Robbs Callahan & Pierce.
Although it's located several blocks away, how could you possibly resist tripping over to a gallery named Electric Moustache?? And while you're there, enjoy a relaxing change of pace at Krankie's.

September Edition, E-news from DADA
Earlier in the year, yours truly took on the task of producing the monthly E-Newsletter for DADA . This is how I spent my Labor Day "holiday," which, in my book, is just another Monday.
