Painting in Sound - a Music Performance in the Gallery

  • San Francisco Women Artists Gallery (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

I will perform on 5-string electric viola with electronics in the San Francisco Women Artists Gallery during their “Edge of Abstraction” show. I also have a piece of my photo art in the juried show - my first ever art gallery show! Since the show features abstract art, I thought playing electric with effects would be appropriate. There will be two 40-minute sets, starting at 4:00 and 5:00. RSVP on Facebook (optional.)
