DCR Advertisement and Workshop Announcement

Hey all!  We sent an advertisement to be published in the Denver Catholic Register, but it didn't make it in this week.  They had a full page of advertisements, so I'm sure our's was just bumped in place of more important things- like masses and such.  Anyway, here's what it would have said.  If you can steal this little advert and publish it where ever you can, that'd be great!

Call for Entries for Catholic Writers:  Aggiornamento Art and Cultural Event is a collective of Catholic Artists and other creative people reviving our authentic Catholic Culture in the Denver Metropolitan Area.  Shows take place each First Friday and Saturday at the Knights of Columbus #539 Hall at 1555 Grant St in Denver.  This month's show will showcase local Catholic writers and authors, as well as local Catholic Artists, Artisans and Musicians.  We are looking for local authors, poets and other writers to submit their works for display and sale. A portion of proceeds from sold works goes to the KofC hall and to perpetuate the event.  Please contact Joey or Brittany Kerlin at SaintRochStudios@gmail.com or visit our blog at www.CatholicArtandCulture.blogspot.com to apply by February 29th.  Show runs Friday, March 2nd, 6-10pm and Saturday, March 3rd, 1-5pm.  Local artists also welcome to apply.

Also- In case you weren't aware, Joey and Britt Kerlin will be in charge of the March show as Nicole and Mark Thomason will be out of town visiting family.  For all you artists, this means contact us if you need help with anything.  If you need, you can drop off any work with us by Thursday, March 1st at our home.

And for everyone else, Joey Kerlin, our resident ceramicist and experienced instructor, will be leading our workshop on Saturday from 1:30-3:30.  Since our theme this month is Words, you'll be excited to learn that he has blended the 2 medium, visual and verbal art, together to bring this project to you.  If you want a sneak peek and what you'll be working on, come to the show on Friday to see Joey's newest creations- that are NOT made of clay!

Finally!  Don't forget that the potluck will be Friday night, March 2nd!  Since it's lent, don't forget to bring a MEATLESS meal to share.  We will provide forks, spoons, plates and bowls, napkins and cups.  Bring your own serving utensils and anything else you may need.  Beer and wine sales will benefit the hall, and water will also be provided.  You don't have to be an artist to join us in our potluck!  Pre-show dinner begins at 5:30 and we will open the doors to the public at 6:00pm.

See you next week at the show!
