Marie Elcin, Cityscape

This Monday, November 3rd, from 4-6 pm, we will celebrate Marie Elcin's new embroidering work, Cityscape, at The Art Shop @ Moore College of Art & Design. Be sure to come out early, as it'll get dark early since we change clocks back on Saturday.

Cityscape, Marie Elcin '00

November 3-29, 2008 at The Art Shop @ Moore College of Art & Design
20th Street & The Parkway, Philadelphia.

Opening reception: Monday, November 3rd, 2008. 4-6 pm.

Marie's work has been exhibited all over Philadelphia, including Highwire Gallery, the Fleisher Art Memorial, and the Physick House. She teaches embroidery at the Fleisher Art Memorial and most recently hosted a "Stitching Hour" workshop at the Random Tea Room & Curiosity Shop in conjunction with an exhibition there in October, 2008.

Success in the Art of Selling Art

The Art Shop hosted the opening for Ruth Lampi's installation, What My Eyes Saw and My Hands Remembered, last night. There was a great turnout! Also, we sold the centerpiece of the installation to a couple who is involved with the college. Besides friends of the artist, a few of my contacts from University of the Arts and the PA Academy of Fine Arts showed up. Everyone had some wine, coffee, cheeses, and a good time chatting about art.

It did get cold and windy by 6 o'clock, so I think next month we'll move the viewing times to 4-6 instead of 5-7pm.

Now it's time to start getting artists committed for next year.

First Monday @ The Art Shop

Join me to celebrate the opening of Ruth Lampi's installation Things my Eyes Saw and My Hands Remembered, at The Art Shop at Moore.

This is the monthly artist's installation in our gallery window, and the seventh in the series.

Monday, October 6th, 5-7 pm.
