Posted December 17, 200717 yr …at the Goloka Gallery. Backstory is that the Dayton arts high school had its funding cut, after a school levy was defeated, so they had to cut classes and fire art teachers. So this was a benefit for the school. Lets check it out….. Chicago Afro-Beat Project tour bus. They were playing Yellow Spring the next day, but stopped here to play the benefit Goloka’s gallery space Two pieces from Robert Shifflers collection. If you have been following the Dayton Arcade threads, you will recognize the name.. I had no idea Shiffer was a collector. (looks like something by Survival Research Labs) (disco bed. I had to have a pix with the glitter ball) Jud Yakluts corner The place was busy. The show extended out into the old factory spaces. Stivers student gallery and silent auction No pix, but these were pretty good. Stivers apparently teaches film and video as well as the usual arts “..”I’m going to wave my freak flag high” Theatrical and musical things being put on by the Stivers students and some others…. “Hey, we can put on a show in this hear barn, er, I mean factory!” Mehr Kunst! Installation And, out side, the ever-present peace truck …getting “creative”:
December 17, 200717 yr You go to the coolest events! I wouldn't normally think of Dayton as having events like this.
December 17, 200717 yr Why wouldn't it? It's got 1.1 million people. It'd better have events like this. "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
February 25, 200817 yr Looks like an awesome event. Did you happen to make it to the dedication and open house at Stivers a couple of weeks ago, Jeffrey? I'd like to hear someone's opinion on the new additions and renovation. Hopefully it is a great space, because these young adults are incredibly talented and with the recent staff and budget cuts, I'd hate to see these programs suffer. (Not that I think ANY of the schools or programs in DPS should suffer.)
