I've written about the Hoboken Artists' Studio Tour in these pages before, and in the past two years since I opened YES Gallery I've written about the joyous experience of celebrating the Artists' Studio Tour as a gallery that is participating in the event. This year it is today, November 3, and I had the wonderful opportunity to welcome some musicians to the space who are new to me by the name of Plunk, a trio who perform experimental music. Though they are new to me, they are not new to Hoboken as they have been living in Hoboken and making their wonderful music together in the area for some time now.
Along with Plunk I also had the wonderful opportunity to welcome back Visionary Module and in a lovely way to see these different musicians interacting with each other as one of the members of Plunk had heard from a friend that I sometimes had experimental music at the gallery and Visionary Module was one of the people who has brought his experimental music to the space. When I told him about Plunk, and that I had met them because they had heard about his performances at the gallery, he decided not only to play but to stop by and listen to their set. It's so beautiful when Artists can meet and see and listen and be inspired by each other.
I'll be writing more next week as the day itself is so busy that I won't have time for more than just this little blurb for now. It's such a joy to experience the Artists in the space and also to be able to welcome the community for wonderful celebrations like this. When we celebrate Art together in welcoming community settings and celebrations, every moment brings another beautiful memory and inspiration abounds.
