December 3, 7-10pm: Unicorn. Please join us for the opening of UNICORN, an art show benefiting the Saola Working Group! The unicorn is an enduring and powerful symbol, but deep in the Annamite Mountains of Laos and Vietnam there exists a living unicorn: the Saola. This beautiful and elusive creature is hardly known to us and already on the brink of extinction.
"Saola is by far the largest terrestrial animal in the world that has never been seen in the wild by a biologist." (http://www.savethesaola.org/)
It is said that only a pure heart may approach a unicorn and that a touch from its horn has the power to cleanse and heal. We will donate 10% of the proceeds from this show to the Saola Working Group in support of their efforts to understand and preserve this enigmatic creature!

October 21, 7-10pm: Grace Lang Solo show: “True Cuts” refers to the most vulnerable parts of us, the places where our insides creep out through the skin. The cut, or wound, has long been an important image in Grace’s work both for its immediate visual impact and its metaphoric possibilities. Instantly recognized, a cut is a tangible visual representation of experienced pain. The evolution of a wound into a scab into a scar has a clear parallel with the process of living through and healing from a difficult experience, physical or emotional. Requiring time and care to heal properly, the scar is quite literally evidence of personal maturation. The internal forces its way out and the external world rebuilds the skin as best it can, leaving a piece of us forever altered. On our bodies and on our psyches, “True Cuts” are the most pure and cathartic memories we are forced to carry as we move forward. While combating the dark things inside us will never leave us unmarked, the battle is worthwhile and the resulting wounds can serve either to strengthen or weaken the armor we cultivate throughout our lives. Rather than viewing our personal demons as enemies, Grace views them as difficult aspects of our selves that, once confronted and understood, can be utilized for good. With each difficult experience, our armor grows and we become the warriors of our own worlds.
