From the reception, Whole Plate Show 8/26
We had a great reception tonight. A bit quieter than the opening, but what we lacked in volume we made up in quality. It was really nice to be able to engage with everyone who visited and talk about the work. That’s the real reward for running a gallery – having a conversation with your audience and hopefully educating them about something they hadn’t seen before or thought about quite the same way. A real bonus surprise was the family of Heather Wetzel, one of the artists in the show, stopped by to see the exhibit. Given most of the artists in the show are scattered to the four corners of the planet, or at least the continental US, it was a pleasant happenstance that her mom and siblings dropped by to attend the show for her by proxy.
