We're really excited to be participating in Asbury Park's First Saturday Avenue-wide Sidewalk Sale tomorrow, August 5, & Parlor Gallery's new exhibit opening tomorrow night. We hope it will provide some badly needed funds, and on that score I'll have a selection of Beauty Thru Radiation work suitable for wall hanging for just $100 each, with other found-object, Day-Glo "trash art" by myself & fellow gARTener Mark Davis priced from $20 on up, as well as some of the framed Beauty Thru Decay photos from our first June, 2015 show in the lot at 713 Cookman. Then we're offering Flower Power classes on Sunday August 6 [10:30 am - kids & adults], & Monday, August 7 [adults only 7:30 pm, byo refreshments]. So it's a jam-packed weekend of art & music fun ... & a sh*tload of hard work, too.

Part of that work is a continuation of our lighting plan. Today I'll be replacing 3 of our bottle-encased LED spotlights with a panel of 5 black light, LED spots, mounted high instead of on the ground, to try to better illuminate the center of the lot. I'll also be adding our 5th black light LED-strip-in-a-bottle chain, and moving one of the existing bottle chains to begin mirroring the west Parlor Wall "necklace" on the east Cookman Wall. Here's some shots from the assembly process, & my visit to the gARTen last night at 11 pm.
