The Arts Crawl is on, but the outside activities are canceled.
The merchants will be open, and the inside concerts are still on! The gastrobus just arrived. So come on out and eat, listen to music and take advantage of some great sales.
It’s that time of year – SUMMER ARTS CRAWL in South Pasadena.
Mark your calendars for the very popular “Neighborhood-Night-On-The-Town” featuring something for everyone! Shops and boutiques will be open late with special exhibits, trunk shows, open houses and sales! Stop in at the local restaurants and cafes for a snack or dinner.
The SPARC Gallery will present the work of Diane Meyer* and a special concert, featuring local singer/songwriter Tisa Adamson* and Friends.
The exhibition at the SPARC Gallery, will feature work created by Diane while an artist-in-residence in Berlin, where she took pictures of the city and its suburbs, tracing the path of the Berlin Wall in places where only hints of its existence remained. Fascinated by the loaded psychology of these sites and the incomplete ways in which we remember them, she pixilated parts of her original photographs and overlayed them with delicate multi-hued embroidery. Meyers meticulous stitching pierces the photograph as it simultaneously heals and conceals the historic fabric to which it alludes.
Tisa will be performing songs from her recently released CD, “Fingers”.
There will also be an interactive art activity so that the entire family can get creative. Cap off the evening by gathering on the lawn by the Iron Works Museum, 913 Meridian Avenue, for a free movie! “The Boxtrolls” (rated PG) will be shown, courtesy of the South Pasadena Preservation Foundation, starting at approximately 8:45 pm.
