GallowLily’s presents: Let Go: 
Prints, paintings, drawings and other hand-made works by: Caroline Paquita 
Opening Reception: Saturday, February 13th 7PM On display until Friday, February 26th “Born and raised in Miami, Florida, I currently live in Brooklyn, NY. Drawing, painting, printmaking, textile works, video and photography are some of the mediums that I work in and I'm always in the process of learning something new. If you're interested in purchasing art, please look at the "For Sale/ETSY" section, or contact me if you'd like to commission any work. I always like to hear from folks and love to trade things in the mail. If you wildcraft medicinal plants or seaweeds, have some kefir grains to spare (or any other thing that you might worth trading), please get in touch! Also, if you happen to know of a beekeeper in the NYC area that might be interested in having an apprentice, I'd love to meet someone I could learn from.” P.S. I'm currently playing with a new band called forgetters and you can read more about what we're up to via our blog: http://www.forgetters.blogspot.com/ Also, please send all emails concerning forgetters to: forgetters@gmail.com http://www.carolinepaquita.com http://carolinepaquita.etsy.com http://www.forgetters.blogspot.commailto:forgetters@gmail.comhttp://www.carolinepaquita.comhttp://carolinepaquita.etsy.comshapeimage_8_link_0shapeimage_8_link_1shapeimage_8_link_2shapeimage_8_link_3

Local Fashion Exhibition and Showcase

Gallery5, Rumors and CECO Studio Present:
Model Citizen
Opening Reception: Friday, March 5th
Fashion Showcase: Saturday, March 6th
Gallery5 is excited to announce the first annual, Model Citizen. This two-day event and month long exhibition will showcase the best of Richmond’s fashion industry and seeks to inform the audience of the abundance of local talent and offerings. This exhibition is created to encourage our community to support their locally owned businesses by shopping locally. The event will feature runway shows, student design work, exhibition openings, craft vendors, musical performances, and more - highlighting our favorite boutiques and fashion designers. According to show coordinator Casey Longyear from Rumors, "I wanted to really display elements that are the heart of this city regardless of age or interests. This fashion show recalls the history of the city, recognizes the beauty of the river and parks, pays attention to the dirtiness of the streets, and showcases the ability to express yourself.
