Starting something new is always a bit scary, but on Saturday night a familiar event will be back in an exciting way (but with something very fresh) at The Meanwhile Bar.
When Con Artist Crew's 3rd annual
We Own The Night exhibition opens, it will be the first big run of an event that promises a delicious mix of technology and art to advance the sale of artwork on a world-wide platform. This new platform for buying art will connect the prospective buyer to an artist’s bio along with other details about the exhibition.
The launch of CAC's
ArtLustr with StartGarden might seem scary, but according to the team launching, which includes Reuben Garcia, Magdalene Law, and Katie Moore, they are ready to roll out the art app in a bold fashion.
What it means to you and your busy schedule is that even if you cannot make the event, you still can be a part of the action this Saturday night.
Exhibiting this night will be artists Ryan Brady, Emily Luyk, Reuben Garcia, Brooke Ruble, Thomas Peterson, Rae Lang, Crystal Welling, Kate Wilson, Ryan Koster, Katie Moore, Michael D Willis, Chelsea Van Tongeren, Fredy Santiago, and Magdalene Law.
If you are still in the mood for some fun in the neighborhood after attending We Own The Night, wander down to Billy's Lounge (1437 Wealthy St. SE) for
The Black Eagle EP/Video release party from one of Grand Rapids' most energetic hip hop artists, AB.
In addition to being the release of The Black Eagle EP, complete with a fun red carpet entry and a chance to score a free CD (to the first 50 guests), it's also the occasion of a live video taping of this thrilling debut event as AB welcomes to the concert stage fellow musical artists including NIXON, The JRV Jazz Trio, Martel, Noir, DJ Snax, and Mr. Fables.
If you are able to do both and still make church in the morning, there will be probably be a prize in heaven for loving your local artists this much in such a thrilled, packed night.
