Darcy Berg - Art Cube Studios: Art in the Boonies.

Hello,
I will be one of the featured artists in the Art Cube Studios: Art in the Boonies. My opening will be Friday, September 2, 2011, from 6:00 to 9:00. Stop by and have some thing to eat and drink. I'm not quite sure where I will be located but the following information will assist you to find me. If you can't make it the opening, I will be there every Friday night through September.

"Art Cube Studios is hosting Plainfield’s new 'Art in the Boonies Art-walk.' Through the generosity of local building owners whom have agreed to allow us to occupy their vacant spaces, we plan to host a series of Pop-up Galleries in the downtown Plainfield area. It’s 'First Fridays' time! Every First Friday of each month will reveal new shows in each space. Artist receptions will be held on First Fridays from 6-9pm. Galleries will be open for the art-walk
every Friday throughout the summer. There will be maps and descriptions of each gallery throughout the spaces and at Art Cube Studios." http://artcubestudios.com


See you there!
