Tomorrow is the third Thursday of the month, so the 7th Street area art galleries have their extended hours.
We will have a two person show by John Jacobsmeyer and Margaret McCann.
Jacobsmeyer, who lives and has a studio in Brooklyn, and teaches in Manhattan, has exhibited twice with us. His first show was reviewed by Ferdinand Protzman in the Washington Post and his second show was also reviewed by Jessica Dawson in the Post a couple of years later.
This will be McCann's debut in the DC area.
See you there!
A delayed but well-deserved good bye to Washington area artist Noche Crist, who passed away a few days ago.
