Rodeo Days Weekend Southwest Artists Show

by on Feb. 25, 2011, under Arts, Life

The longer version flyer I got last night pictures some of the beautiful art of the artists who will be exhibiting tomorrow:

Susan French, Bob Kray II, Ron Nelson, Elen Zank, Diane Davis, Joyce Jaden, Mickey Bond, Raymonde Zlotnikoff, George Howard, Kaye Guerin Marks, Gary Mackender, Mark Garris, and many more. Call 520-907-7325 for more info.

I’ve been to Ron Nelson‘s alley studio on 524 Ferro Avenue (just north of E. 6th Street) and his work is amazing and beautiful, yet made “entirely of recycled materials: shredded newspaper, house paint, and reused pieces of wood for framing.”

Enjoy Rodeo Weekend & this show with these Southwestern artists.

    This is my first year in Tucson. I went to the rodeo which was the most fun I’ve had in a long time. This exhibit was the cherry on the sundae of my Rodeo weekend.  I almost didn’t find out about this – I think it could use more publicity.

      Welcome to Tucson Emmit.Not sure how this artist group publicized themselves, but I just got handed a flyer on Thursday night,  and I saw this listing in the Tucson Weekly under “Art”.  Stay tuned, as I am updating a publication/news media blog I wrote in August 2009, entitled “Under the Tucson Sun” for people to find community events (lots to do here).
