Samuel J. Zacks Gallery Presents...."Fart for Art's Sake"
In conjunction with the Samuel J. Zack's gallery, the Flying Walrus is curating
a fragmentary selection of young artists under an ethic of "Fart for Art's
Ache!"
On Wednesday, March 3rd, we will be hosting a cabaret-style event to gather,
schmooze, and act as if our art is somehow changing the world.
The night's performance, "Waiting for Waiting for Godot" will feature dramatic
readings, musical performances, comedy, and a good amount of open mic time for
YOU to come and show off your skills. Bring musical instruments, props, or
material to read and we will pressure you into performing in front of a group
of people.
Did I mention that there will be plenty of cheese?!
"Waiting for Waiting for Godot" is just the beginning. The exhibit will be open
from March 3rd until March 12th, so if you don't make it out to the
performance, make sure to come by to see the work of these artists:
Rasia Virani, Joe Shellard, Anna Veprinska, Madd Hattere, Devon Marinac, Shinjini Sur, Alex Sheriff, and More!
Slugs and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails
Opening Reception: Wednesday, February 3, 7-9pm

Samuel J. Zacks Gallery Presents Simon Black and Robert Clements' interests lie in their own bodily materials and common instruments used to collect them - hair, finger nail clippings, soap, and dental floss to name a few.
