This weekend was the celebration of Garden State Art Weekend, an annual event that began last year. When I first was told about it a year ago, an Artist who has work in YES Gallery had sent me information about how to sign up to be listed, but it arrived after the time for signing up and I wasn't able to officially be a part of it. This year, a few people kept in touch with me to make sure that I was included, and even though my schedule has been so busy, because of all the well wishing people who kept helping me be a part of it, I found myself setting up events for the celebration.
A few weeks before the Garden State Art Weekend was to begin, Kevin Kemper who had performed with his trio Plunk at YES Gallery last fall during the Hoboken Artists' Studio Tour stopped by, and when I told him about Garden State Art Weekend and invited him to perform again with Plunk, he agreed and also asked if he could perform a solo set. I was more than delighted to have him perform solo and with Plunk, and even more delighted when I heard him perform solo on Saturday. This weekend is such a full one, and I won't write much now, but here's a little listen to the gorgeousness we were treated to with Kevin playing solo as we celebrated art of all kinds at YES Gallery.
