Charity event today 4 pm SLT

The Warehouse has a charity event today 4 pm SLT  with proceeds donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation to support breast cancer research and education.

This new club is really cool. I love the set up. Join us for the party, and the auction!

Here is what they wrote in the invitation:

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Breast Cancer affects everyone. No matter who you are, it is likely that you know someone that has been affected by it it some way. Perhaps even lost loved ones to the insidious killer.

Organizations such as the Susan G. Komen Foundation are dedicated to supporting research into new diagnostic methods and treatments as well as improving education to help individuals detect the symptoms at an early stage. They also assist both patients and their families cope with the disease and treatment.

 The Warehouse is pleased to support this cause by doing what we do best; having a party! Please join us at 4 pm SLT on Friday 10-26 as we enjoy a night of awesome entertainment and even more awesome people. Kicking off the night we have the incredible LongHard Rhode with a special two hour live performance that will knock your socks off (and possibly other clothing articles).

Following LongHard's show, DJ KiKi will be taking the stage to spin some rocking tunes from 6-7 pm.

Capping off this amazing evening, DJ Sparrow will take the stream from 7-9 pm SLT to get everyone's blood pumping with her awesome mix of blues and blues inspired rock.

We will have a some items to auction off and all proceeds from the auctions and tips will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation to support breast cancer research and education.  Our goal is to raise at least $25,000 L's (about $100 US) so please help us support this worthy cause if you can.

Drawing inspiration

Cica Ghost's Black and White World at LEA 13 is a fantastic experience. Cica says in the description of her installation, in the LEA blog, that her idea for this project came from an imaginary world she has in her mind. I love the storybooklike feel of her work. The drawings move around and the world is full of fun little details.

I was going to take pictures of the sim itself only, at first, but the whole experience is somehow made even better by the visitors moving around and interacting inside the fantasy world. It is a great place to spend time alone or with friends, and to let your mind wander. I feel like writing poems or painting after a moment there.

Galleries galore

Today I visited Campus d'Art, a whole region full of galleries. Owned and curated by Cecilia Delacroix, this area is a treasure trove for anyone interested in art. Some of the galleries are for educational purposes. Others showcase and sell contemporary art by rl and SL artists. Cecilia told me she has worked on this art region for six years, and it shows, as it took me hours just to get a surface level picture of what can be found there. I need to go back often to take a deeper look in each of the exhibits. And there is new art coming soon!

Delacroix Gallery of Photography showcases photography by Cecilia Delacroix. The exhibit sets are Western U.S. scenics, "Reflections of Las Vegas" and "The Vineyards of Santa Rita Hills". Going from detailed to abstract, the photographs show the athmosphere and moods of each place and moment. I found a gorgeous picture of the Redwoods in California. Having visited there myself, I loved how the image captured the spirit of the forest. Luckily artwork is on sale in the gallery.

Nextdoor is "Meadow Flowers of Summer", an exhibit of photograps by Cecilia Delacroix and Bloodrose Valencia.

I really liked an image called Midsummer Morning Flowers #1, hummingbird!

Delacroix Pavilion nearby houses exhibits by guests artists. The current exhibit is "Garden and Glass" with 42 pictures of blown glass art by Seattle based artist Dale Chihuly.

More glass art at the Contemporary Glass Art exhibit in the Bella Vida gallery a short walk away, take the escalator down.

There is plenty more to see around the campus. I recommend you take your time looking around. List of the galleries with pictures after the jump.
