23 Sandy Gallery is Closed for Winter Break

We will reopen on First Friday, February 3, 2012

Wish I could report a vacation to some tropical location, but alas, as usual, breaks here at 23 Sandy mean big trips and big projects. On Thursday I'll be heading to San Francisco for the College Book Arts Association conference. This conference is very exciting because other than a quick 20-minute lecture, I'm going as an artist. Usually I go to fairs and conferences as a vendor and it's all work. This conference will be all about getting inspired as an artist plus connecting with all of my book artist friends and colleagues. But, the week after will be even more fun as I bop around the bay area visiting university and museum friends and peddling artist books. 

These rest of January will be devoted to a new project that I am very excited about. 23 Sandy will soon have all of our inventory on a real online storefront. Thanks to Erin Derge and her tech guru Marshall, we have the store architecture up and running and even have the first 20 or 30 items posted. The shopping cart is working and we are ready to populate the hundreds of artist books, broadsides, photographs and more that we carry here in gallery inventory. Catch a sneak peak at our new store here. 

While the gallery is closed stop by for a special installation viewable from outside our gallery windows: The Labyrinth of Tantalus by Anna & Leo Daedalus. More information about this intriguing installation coming soon. 

Posts will continue, but at a slower pace in January. In the meantime, have a great month.

And, Happy New Year!
