Last December, I squeaked by with first honors in First Person Arts’ Holiday Spirit installment of Story Slams. The semi-enchanting tale of friendship, generosity and defecation also earned me a spot in this season’s Grand Slam.

If you’re interested in catching a rare glimpse of me in a church as I lose the title of Best Storyteller in Philadelphia to someone whom actually deserves it, order tickets.

On Thursday, September 30th, Main Line Art Center is throwing an uproarious house party. The Fundraiser, complete with music, beer, art demos, a print exchange and shrinky dink jewelry benefits the Art Center’s arts education and community outreach programs. Tickets are $15 in advance; $20 at the door.

I’ll be there exhibiting my painting, Community, (which was featured in the book Edgy Cute), drinking beer, watching demos, trading prints, shrinking dinks and dolling out high fives. It will be the best thing to happen to Thursday night since that lady fell down the elevator shaft on LA Law.

Bevan McSchea, Justin Duerr and yours truly combine forces for a monthlong group show unified by strong contour lines and our weakness for cityscapes. Celebrate the 4th of June at the opening reception.

Former college roommate and longtime pal, Bevan McShea, and I are slated to return to MilkBoy for another installment of Jazz Tactics. He spins records to my paint-flinging while I fling paint to his record-spinning while you bask in the gloriousness of the artistic collision. See you there.
