If you are an artist in the Big Bend Region of West TX, check out [link] and learn about the Big Bend Arts Council, a nonprofit organization that hopes to help support and promote the arts out here. I'm volunteering like whoa to get things shakin', and more help means we can move faster towards our goals!

Not that many folks wander here who're close enough for fast road trips (and folks who wander here who're already in town know about this possibly) but this coming Friday and Saturday, November 21-22 is Alpine's big Art Walk weekend.

[link] has much more info about the weekend in general, but there's live music, lots of shops invite artists to hang on their walls, and all galleries are open. There's also auctions and fundraisers and all sorts of general festivity.

My art will be as usual in the Big Bend Arts Council [link] Gallery on the Square [link] on the corner of North 5th and Sul Ross. We're an official location for the fun, with the Sul Ross State University student show in the same building too- but we're not on what's considered the "main drag" by a block or so, and it will take some walking or a quick car hop to see us.

I'm also taking a pile of my work to a small gallery in Terlingua, Texas tomorrow.

And I'm TRYING to get both my tee-shirt site and my studio/art site's stores set up to run before December hits, though this week of course, Art Walk preparations rule over all others, followed by "Crap need to make more small things for Terlingua!"
