Artists Lounge

"Lounge" is used as a noun, not a verb ... though in some cases I have to admit the verb form applies to me more often than it should!

This is just a brief posting to further explain an announcement I made earlier today on my Facebook page (mbpgrafix).

I was very happy to learn over the weekend that I received Juried acceptance into a Mason, OH artists' cooperative called the Artists Lounge.  The co-op is located in the Pop Revolution Art Gallery at 105 East Main St. in Mason, OH.

I actually came across an artists' co-op this past fall when I was in San Antonio, TX. As part of their artists community, there was a building dedicated to Southwestern Texas area artists who gathered together to rent a building and run the facility as a group. Each weekend, one of the more than 25 or 30 artists there, has a day-long demo of their artwork.

The Grand Opening of the Artists Lounge will be Saturday as part of the "Self" juried art show that also will be taking place at the gallery from 5-8 p.m.

One of the really nice things thing about the Artists Lounge is that the storefront/gallery is actually open Tuesday through Friday from 10 a.m.-to-6 p.m. and Saturday from 11 a.m.-to-3 p.m.

I do have a wall space there that features some of my artwork which is for sale.

The artists co-op will also feature Open House events every Second Thursday from 6-9 p.m., beginning March 13.

It's a very nice facility located in a great part of town with convenient restaurants nearby.

NEXT BLOG: I promised to do the next blog on composition. I haven't forgotten that, I just wanted to get this announcement posted before the Grand Opening this weekend. Hopefully, I will see you there!
