Summer's here and the temperatures are hot, hot, hot! Staying cool is an arduous task even for me! All studio work is done early, early, early and all other chores as well before that sun starts beating down! So, while in the city to celebrate the Fourth, here's some things that are hot, hot, hot... Catch The Chinese Warriors at the Times Discovery Center in New York City. This is a great exhibit with real artifacts from the underground tomb of the First Emperor of China. Actual 6 foot tall ceramic soldiers, officers and their stallions grace the exhibit as well as other artifacts taken from the tomb of China's First Emperor. Up until August this is a crowd pleaser for children and adults. Also, catch Tracy Bennett as Judy Garland at the Belasco Theater on 44th Street in "The End of the Rainbow". A fabulous show that can be done after seeing the great antiquities mentioned above in the Times Discovery Center on 44th Street! It's a great way to spend a hot, hot day in a hot, hot city. Be sure to cool down and hydrate and enjoy Carmine's for a bite in between or after the shows! Tickets for both events can be purchased through Ticketmaster or on their respective sites.
Another great way to spend a hot, hot day in the big apple is to check out the new gallery exhibits at Pavel Zoubok Gallery and Denise Bibro Gallery in Chelsea. "I'll Take You There" opens at Pavel Zoubok and Denise Bibro has a great summer exhibit of favorite gallery artists such as David Barnet and Dusty Boynton. Stroll around and stop for a quick coffee or water at some of the great cafes and restaurants in Chelsea.
Another great hot, hot spot will be in Asheville come August. The Miniature Book Society is having their annual enclave at the Asheville Bookworks and in celebration of all things great and small, the Bookworks is having an exhibit of miniature pop-ups entitled "Mini-Pops". This writer has a work in the exhibit and the Bookworks always has great exhibits and classes. To coincide with the enclave, Shawn Sheehy will be teaching a two-day workshop on pop-ups for miniature books. Check out their website for information but as of this date, the workshop is full! To all things great and small!
So stay cool and if you're in need of a hot, hot spot, check out some of the above or email me with some of your favorite escapes, books, or anything
