Closing Reception: November 22
Fernando Cabrera Gonzalez is closing his showcase of artistic evolution over the years with a painting reveal. Many watched at the opening as Fernando live painted the background of the painting. Now is your chance to see the completed artwork. If you haven’t already, you should see our gallery filled with his bright use of color and layered symbolism. "Esa Es La Tirada" is a Mexican saying meaning “That’s the goal.” He’s developed his own expressive use of brushstrokes and colors to create an abstract underpainting, then progresses from there consciously bringing images to life on canvas. Take a pause in the mayhem and swing by for a relaxing art viewing experience.

Working with LIGHT, an often overlooked medium, creates unique opportunities for artists. This is your exhibit to show off your illuminating talents. Of our annual shows, this exhibit has that extra spark of creativity as artists make light art. There are so many new technologies that open possibilities – Interactive, experimental or conceptual. This year we’re allocating one room to be flooded with UV light specifically to properly illuminate UV reactive artworks. If your art glows in a dark setting and needs a dark gallery space, this is your opportunity to have a dark gallery setting to shed a light on your art. Create your most illuminating artworks, and experiment with light. From darkness to LIGHT, that's the essence of what this exhibit is about. Now, let's play in the glow!

Just one day left before the monsters are loose. Get your tickets now https://bit.ly/48ly4yl Doors creak open at 7pm to performances, continuing into the wee hours. It’ll blow your mind while tickling your spine. Spinning gnasty gnarly grooves for the evening will be All Hail Pan. The blow-out killer stage show opens with spirited musical ballads by the Blood Feud Family Singers, with up-tempo down-hearted waxing poetic-philosophical country-fried hostility for sentimental haters promising you a frolicking horrific time. Following a brief stage emotional breakdown, the stage will come alive again conjured up by VaVaVoom Studio with performances that blur the lines between scintillating and gory, a bit scary and a lot sexy, stirring in a dash of erotic with a twisted decadence and depravity inducing spinal erections, then tossed in together to appease the tease, resulting in unusual levels of onstage morbidity. Those hungry monsters in attendance will be satiated with Racks and Balls food truck serving up delicious balls and bbq racks from various monstrous sources. Elixirs du jour will flow: VooDoo Ranger is bringing his special ales and be sure to imbibe in the Spider Venom to inoculate you from the werewolves. 21+
