Art & Industry

On this fine Friday morning, I thought we'd provide a recap of our artistically-driven week — and a look-forward to our weekends! Last night we stepped out for a night on the town, taking advantage of Jazz 88's monthly event Jazz After Work. Erin and I got dolled up in cute dresses and cute shoes (well, naturally) and enjoyed cocktails, snacks, and live jazz at the St. Paul Hotel. Jazz 88 puts these lovely events on monthly, at nifty locations around the Twin Cities — like Cafe Maude and the Artists' Quarter, to name just a few. They're fun, they're free, and they're great networking opportunities. The next one will be held on February 11th at Vic's in Minneapolis — good times, for sure!

.... Even if we did get a parking ticket in downtown St. Paul. Ouch. I guess we should have valeted it. Alas. (But still ... St. Paul Hotel, so pretty at night!)


I intend to continue with an artsy theme for the weekend, kicking off my Friday night with the opening of the spotguess exhibition at the spotArt gallery in northeast Minneapolis. Featuring live music, refreshments, and great art by local artists including the infinitely talented (and inherently wonderful) Jennifer Stano ... it should be a grand time. Plus, I plan to wear a decidedly one-of-a-kind pair of pink stilettos ..... who can say no to that?
