OODLES of NOODLES
Ramen noodles are a marvel. I am amongst the millions that have been on a sleeping-on-someone’s-couch budget at one point in my life. That budget allows for ramen noodles, oatmeal and a splurge on peanut butter for protein. If you can find a couch in NYC, this next Call might be a great reason to eat ramen again. Just a thought…
Check out this Call for Applications from the SOHO20 Gallery Chelsea (New York City, NY) for an Artist Residency. If you have a friend who’ll let you sleep on the couch for a few weeks (okay, 3 months), this is a GREAT opportunity to jump into the NYC art scene. Take a look…
