EC/DC Online..

Our show at Marquis was featured in the Electric City and Diamond City regional entertainment guides. That's one of my porcelain Celtic bowls!
The city of Scranton is known as "The Electric City" because it was the first city in the nation to introduce electric trolley cars. Wilkes-Barre is called "The Diamond City" in reference to the the city's coal mining heritage. Coal often being referred to as black diamond. Posted by Picasa
The EC/DC guides are published weekly and keep us up to speed on what happening in arts and entertainment in the Woming Valley.

ArtWalk

Thanks to the dozens who ventured out on a bitter cold evening to attend the Third Friday Artist's Reception at Marquis Art and Frame. The overnight temperature fell to as low as 15 degrees below zero here in NEPA, but that didn't keep us from enjoying a night out.
I sold a number of pieces and was glad to see one happy gallery guest head home with her newly purchased stoneware incense urn. (Enjoy your Nag Champa, keep warm and hope to see you at the next "Wild Women, Wine and Wheels Night!" )
Even some impromptu art was created in the form of a "Portrait of a Carrot" (Thanks to my daughter Rowan.) and some "Calamari Art'' courtesy of Bear Creek's one and only modern day legendary folk hero.
Thanks again to everyone who attended!
