Deep Love @ The Rose Wagner 10.30
With the recommendation to wear funeral attire, I felt it appropriate to give some holiday cheer a go, and decided to attend this rock opera based around a cemetery theme. Before the entertainment began, producers Ryan Hayes and Garrett Sherwood started with a brief disclaimer for the audience, informing us to react to the performance as you would a rock concert. Since most of us probably did not know what to expect from the show, this proved to be efficient in getting the crowd to appropriately respond with cheers, whoops and whistles throughout the evening. … read more
Gallery Stroll – November 2012
The Salt Lake Gallery Stroll takes place the third Friday of every month (with the exception of December, but more on that to come).

Gallery Stroll: A Happy Death
October, my dear old friend, I see you have come to welcome death and darkness in. Goodbye leaves, goodbye flowers, goodbye countless warm hours. Summer, you will be truly missed, but with October’s gentle kiss, I’ll welcome the change and say hello to sweaters and piles of snow. I will not cry, I will not be sad—in fact, I quite enjoy wearing plaid. To celebrate our last of days, I’ll attend galleries and parties and hopefully run into a few goblins or zombies. … read more
