Spring has been busy especially in the art world. How fortunate we are to have so many opportunities to experience artistic and creative endeavors in our community.
The Columbia Festival of the Arts presented a plethora of events.
Janet Orselli's installation "Musical Soles" at the historic Robert Mills house was a rich pleasure for the eyes.
John Sherrer and myself bear our soles
Another highlight of the festival for me was the open studios.
Suzy Scarborough and Marcelo Novo were just a couple of the many artists that opened their studios.
My 701 Whaley documentary is moving along and interest is high.
The Columbia Design League & The Columbia Museum of Art hosted a showing of my rough cut 701 Whaley.
The auditorium was filled with folks interested in the Olympia Mill village and the 701 Whaley building.
Check out this article in
The State and the
rough cut excerpt they streamed.
This month's SKIRT Magazine also has a blurb on me and the 701 project. Photo by Molly Harrell at 701.
(Although Harriett Green tells me I haven't really made it unless I'm in the 24/7 feature. oh well...)

SPOLETO
Dashed down to Spoleto to catch the Rene Marie concert. Her voice is spectacular! We got to meet her at a reception along with her drummer Quentin Baxter.
Hanging out with the SC Arts Commission folks gets you into the hot ticket parties!
Harriett Green and I caught the Feed and Seed Band.
