Last night was a busy arts night in the Twin Ports, at least for those who tried to catch Chance (Kathy McTavish's new exhibit) at the Tweed and simultaneously needed to get ready for the Goin' Postal 2017 Fall Art Show tonight. In the interest of giving "Chance" the suitable coverage it deserves, I will save my notes and most of the photos for another post soon.
The lights were on late last night as Andrew & Becky Perfetti and friends busied themselves with hanging tonight's show at 816 Tower Avenue in Superior. A shipping store by day, it's also an art gallery (salon style), music studio and creative space for a range of other interests.
The Fall Art Show will be from 6 to 9 with an afterparty down the street at Top Hat Tavern (the current iteration of the former Cove) with a special appearance by Laura Velvet and the Bookhouse Boys and (rumor has it) live painting by Dusty Keliin.

| There will be some wonderful new images by John Heino, always a treat. |
There will be art of all stripes, plus friends of the arts, old and new. Three new contributors to this year's who are Adam McCauley, Eric Dubnicka and Elizabeth Kuth. Others who have produced and brought new work for tonight include Glenn Blaszkiewicz, Becky Perfetti, Andrew Perfetti, Tal Lindblad, Marcie Crain, Dusty Keliin, John Heino, Ed Newman, John Dromeshauser aka Johnny Mudd, Ash Marnich, Richard Rosvall, Tara Stone, Kerry Gauthier, and Cully Williams.
Will you join us?
