Trabant Coffee & Chai and the Seattle Arts Coalition present:
"Stencil, Pop, Vinyl" - art on records by Dave Ryan (Manticore Stencil Art)
Opening reception:
Friday, 18 April from 6-9pm
(part of the University District Art Walk)
Encore receptions:
Friday, 16 May from 6-9pm
Friday, 20 June from 6-9pm
This exhibit will run for three full months! Keep coming back to see new additions to the show!
Manticore Art will also be part of the U District Streetfair! Saturday & Sunday, 17-18 June.
Dave Ryan was born and bred in the wet dank forests of Washington
State. He began stenciling in the spring of 2006 and started to refer to
himself as the Manticore.
In the summer of 2008 Dave broke his
neck while backpacking across the US. He had lost most of his fine
motor functions and used stenciling as both a means to regain the use of
his hands and as his sole income.
The Manticore has since made
a full recovery, and his unique blend of silly pop art can be found in
coffee shops, watering holes, and at Seattle's Fremont Sunday Market.
The Manticore is available for custom portraits.
The Seattle Arts Coalition is having our first official fundraiser! It will coincide with the Georgetown Street Fair the 2nd Saturday in June, and we'll be hosted by the generous folks at Krab Jab Studio.
"We Art The Art!"
We are currently looking for:
1. Artists and artisans who would like to vend at Krab Jab during the Fair (all proceeds go to you, the artist, unless you'd like to donate to the cause)
2. Artists who would like to donate original work or limited edition prints to the silent auction (art donations will be tax-deductible and all proceeds go to the SAC)
3. Local businesses who would like to donate merchandise or services for our raffle (we'll include you as sponsors on our press releases)
Please let us know if you're interested! We look forward to seeing you there!
The Georgetown Liquor Company & the Seattle Arts Coalition present:
"It's the End of the World as We Know It (And We Feel Adorable)"
Featuring the Happytime Apocalypse crew
In case you missed the HappyTime Apocalypse art
collective at Trabant Coffee/Laika Lounge this month, you can catch us
again in Georgetown as part of the April Georgetown Art Attack!
Opening reception:
Saturday, 12 April
6-9pm
HappyTime Apocalypse is an art collective that celebrates the balance
of dark and light, good and evil, happy and horrified. We aim to create
an artistic escape from the horrors of the world that surround us by
bringing attention to the humor and beauty within the maddening and
grotesque parts of the human experience, illuminating the opposing
forces of humanity within us all.
This is the official CALL FOR ART
