Hop To It
When the weather outside is frightful, a trip to an art gallery can be so delightful. If you can’t bear the thought of another board game or movie rental and need to get out of the house (like, now!) venture to Fountain Square this Friday night for a green gallery hop.
Join Green Piece Indy at 6 p.m. in studio 213 of the Murphy Building. As part of IDADA’s First Friday Gallery Tours, we’re teaming up with People for Urban Progress, makers of the Dome Handbag (cute wallets, clutches, and messenger bags made from the former roof of the RCA Dome; proceeds from the sales benefit the Indianapolis Parks Department), for a fun event. While in the Murphy Building, you can also visit Indy Swank, purveyor of vintage (read: reused) clothing, including (you guessed it) Dome handbags.
And since you’ll already be downtown, you might as well stop in for the grand opening of Flame Art Studios. Based inside the Circle City Industrial Complex (1125 Brookside Ave., C-15), Flame Art Studios specializes in metal, glass, and silver artwork, jewelry, and other treasures. Many of the items that will be on display are made from recycled materials.
Remember: Don’t let cabin fever get you down. Get out this Friday for a green gallery hop and tell Old Man Winter to shove it!
Piece out,
Renee & Meghan
