More Local Art Seen: An Elephant and a Souptown Exhibit



Jonathan Thunder was selected as this year's artist to decorate Elephant Rock in Lincoln Park. The Native artist has been turning heads lately. Here are several photos from the project. It would appear this is going to be a tradition. In my efforts to locate Elephant Rock I discovered that we also decorated the rock last year year as well.

Tools of the Trade



Here's a video of Jonathan Thunder talking about the project from the DNT. And here's Adam Swanson's rendition from 2016. It would appear that whoever named it Elephant Rock was apparently on to something.

SOUPTOWN
There are numerous local venues for emerging artists to place their work on public display. One of the first places I showed a few of my Dylan paintings was in a display case at the entrance of the Superior Library. It might be that are interested in finding a space to share your work. This is a small space but heavily trafficked. Here's what is on display during the month of October.

Mark your calendars: Kathy McTavish's Chance at Tweed on Thursday, and Goin Postal Show Friday. Three new artists in the mix: Elizabeth Kuth, Adam McAuley and Eric Dubnicka. Plus all the usual suspects. All good.

Meantime, art goes on all around you. Get into it.
