Valentine Movie Night At The Gallery Underground

February 12th, 2008 admin

The Gallery Underground is getting into movies by showing Billy Brown Sox Thursday night, the 14th. I could not find out too much information on the film or the filmmaker other than this little bit found in a Yahoo! group post…

"Billy Brown Sox is the story about a small town delivery boy
who gets hit by a car and wakes up in a parallel universe accused of
a crime he may or may not have committed."

The film is being show 3 times that evening, 5PM, 7PM, and 9PM. The gallery is in the basement of the Avery Building on Mountain and College. I wonder if there will be popcorn?

The Fort Collins Art Festival

November 15th, 2007 admin

Ah the Fort Collins Art Festival, that great time of year when the city’s artists show off their work to the community and the nation. People of all types come out to see art and meet artists. Discoveries are made, deals are struck, connections begin, and inspiration is in the air. And all those people from around the country who travel here to visit our city for it’s well known art, doing a little shopping in Old Town, and touring a brewery or two. The weekend is always a good time and quite a gem on the landscape of Fort Collins’ culture.

Hey wait a minute… There is no Fort Collins Art Festival. Sure we have a few events around where artists can rent a booth such as New West Fest. But there is no weekend that is accessible to artists of all levels and people in any tax bracket that really brings out and showcases the art community in Fort Collins. No one time people from around the world could come to Fort Collins and know they would see what we have to offer when it comes to art.

I am not complaining. I am starting dialogue to create change. I believe all the people of Fort Collins would benefit from a city wide Art Festival.

What do you think? Leave a comment and let us all know.
