Art-O-Matic Marketplace this Saturday!

c. lester 2008

Thought I'd let you all know about the upcoming Art-O-Matic "Marketplace" happening this Saturday, June 7th, 2008 from 12pm-5pm. It'll be held on the 1st Floor in the Cabaret Stage area. I'll be showing a little bit of everything including photography, collage and new works.

In addition to the marketplace, there are 8 more floors of local works to be seen by almost 800 participants, live music, art-related workshops, fantastic city views and a bar/lounge on most floors. Art-O-Matic is a city-wide, non-juried event and is free and open to the public. It runs Wed-Sun from May 9th through June 15th (check their website for hours). It's located in the new, fast-growing NoMa area of DC and is located across from the New York Ave red line metro stop. More info can be found at http://www.artomatic.org/

Artomatic Pix - Under Construction on 4/30/08

Here are some pix of the 12th floor of the new Artomatic space. In one short week it will be transformed! BTW - the views of Washington, DC are amazing - day or night. And, the 12th floor (as high as you can go) is the best place to see them. I'm on the 12th floor, NE, D3. My space is the last picture shown (with the white wall) before I paint it "Le Chateau" which is Glidden's way of saying brown.

See my previous Art-O-Matic post for a directions link. And don't forget to save the date for the big opening on Friday, May 9th!
