The show opens Jan. 5 from 5 to 8 p.m. as part of the monthly art walk and continues through Jan. 28. Gallery A3’s hours are Wednesday through Sundays from 1 to 7 p.m.

Artists and Arts Organizations and Free Schoolers, and community members and...... I think it would be good to get a copy of Phone Book 3 for your reference library. This lovely directory (more than directory really) contains essays and information that helps guide one when looking to connect with independent art spaces, programming, and projects from across the US. It is available in hard copy and pdf.
