GORGE
YOURSELF!
There are SO many opportunities out there for artists…think of it as the ultimate buffet. Not every dish may be for you, but some dishes are just an irresistable combination. Lately, the great dishes just keep coming, and I concerned about my waistline. Okay, moving on from that metaphor…
Check out this great opportunity for (again) art publication AND a show from Fabrik Magazine and The Factory Gallery in Los Angeles. The exposure to gallery directors, interior designers and art consultants ALONE is worth this entry fee, but you get a show too. Plus, this is an international call…so no one is left out. Take a look:
