China Street Meets Broad Street Art Walk

I spent part of yesterday evening enjoying the First Friday Art Walk on Broad Street. I got the chance to briefly speak with its main organizer Christina Newton, who was dutifully working the Curated Culture/First Fridays booth and table right there on Broad. I won ‘nada’ from the “zero sum game”/bailout register at the Metro Space Gallery (CannonballPress.com exhibit).

I saw many Oregon Hill neighbors- including just of a few of the neighborhood artists. Mary from China Street was there with some her hats and scarfs. She says she has also had good luck selling her wares at the South of the James Farmer’s Market.

The Schindler Satellite Gallery has a strong Oregon Hill representation. David Rohrer has his oil painting, “Alley 2, Oregon Hill” there:

Other artists at the Schindler Satellite include Jennifer Holloway Bopst, Lisa Taranto, R. Sawan White, and Chris Milk. My neighbor British Bob, a big First Fridays fan, told me that Chris Milk used to be one of Skillet’s roommates on China Street.
