When: January 27 2007 *My Birthday!!!!!!* :D
Where: The Daily Grind off of High Street in Mt. Holly, NJ within walking distance from the college which is 1 High street, right on the corner of High street and 537.
Time: 11am to 2pm is the opening reception and i believe the show goes on until Feb something o.O i dunno.
but anyways, i checked out the place and met the owner, which she is a cutie btw ;) lol but yeah it's a small little coffee show, I'll have 2 walls to show off 7 pieces. we edited the photos down to the 7 that will be entered... it's gonna be a kinda weird mix because most of it is Philly theme but then one is from a show, which could tie but then the other is studio work... i couldn't enter the stuff i really wanted to put in because of censorship :-( but oh well lol I'm really looking forward to this show. ^_^ also I'm entering 3 photographs to Perkins Center for the Arts... and their show starts the 27th also... I'm just hoping that i get at least one photograph into that show... that show is suppose to be hard to get into... but I'm confident :D i wish i could say that about everything... anyways... don't wanna bore anyone.

Thanks ^_^
i think after this show, i'mma take a break O.O lol or maybe try to expand my radius... I've been doing show going on 2 years non-stop for my college O.O that's kinda the reason i got this solo show ^_^ but I'm tired of having empty hooks at home lol even though I've been trying to fill them with new stuff... I'm planning to hold an art show at my house maybe in February also ^_^ but not really a big thing... kinda a one night show, wine and cheese type thing. i have a friend who works at and art gallery that will be helping me with all of the legal stuff and stuff like that.

Instead of holding it at your house have you thought about looking into renting a small hall or even like a meeting room at a local hotel? Much better then at your house expecially if there are going to be people showing up that you don't know.. You dont want them being able to see what you have in your house.. Or one night you might come home and find you have been cleaned out.. Something similar happened to one of my brothers friends. They figured it was someone they didn't know what showed up at the event. Plus you don't have to worry about veyr much cleaning afterwards.

Find a local building that maybe has some neat archetecture and see if they will let you rent out some space. Hey, they may even let you do do for free as advertisement for the business if there is one. Who knows?

Cool you will need to take pictures of your photos hanging on the wall and take pictures of the event if you can. I'm bummed that I live so far away, but you said it's in NJ right? That's not very very far away so maybe I can make it. How far do you think it is from wilmington delaware?

very good point. i should definitely do that... but if i'm going to do that i'll have to push it back so i can make sure i have all the funding. i'll have to see what resources i have to help me save some money. thanks for the idea ;)
