NEXT MEETING:
We will meet this Wednesday, June 20th at 7:30pm at Kazu Restaurant in Cummins Station. We’ll recap our summer show and discuss what went well and what we could do better. Also, come and find out more about GLOW.
Those of you who are interested in helping out with GLOW may come early to join the GLOW committee at 6pm.
GLOW SHOW 2007:
Our annual GLOW SHOW is set for July 27th. That’s not very far away and we need your help! We will be recruiting lots of folks to help out with this fun show/art party/celebration/fundraiser. Think about what you’d like to do and email us or come to a meeting. The more people we have to help, the less each of us has to do. Volunteers are needed in all areas for before, during and after the show!!!! Volunteering is fun, we promise!
Here are some positions that still need to be filled:
PR Chairperson
Door prize and Donations Chairperson(s) (we have a list of who to approach)
Clean-up God
Silent Auction Coordinator & Assistant
Artist Liaison Assistant
Lighting Coordinator
Poster Crew
Wanna help out but don’t want to be a chairperson? That’s fine too! Just sign up to be a part of any crew at a meeting or email us at info@untitlednashville.org
You may also sign up to volunteer on the registration survey.
GLOWING ARTISTS:
Get your glowing ideas started with some general guidelines for the GLOW SHOW:
The GLOW Show is an art show featuring luminous and black-lit art; also it is Untitled's annual fundraiser. Same as previous years’ glow shows, we will ask for a $5 donation at the door.
Artists and volunteers get in free.
We hope to have as many artists as possible to enter black-lit or luminous pieces into the show. (Black-lit art is art that will glow when placed under a black light. Luminous art is self-lit--i.e., light boxes, light sculptures or other artwork that have an internal light source.) Please review the information below - then get out and GLOW.
*******************************************
Participation fees:
Luminous artwork - $15
Black-lit artwork - $20
Black-lit artwork (artist provides own black light fluorescent tube to suspend above artwork) -$15
********************************************
General considerations:
-Downy and other liquid fabric softeners will glow under black light.
-Borax will also glow under black light.
-Fluorescent chalk, pencils and clay all glow under black light, but fluorescent spray does not.
-Some phosphorescent objects (like the adhesive stars you can put on your
ceiling) will fade gradually after being out of direct light for a while.
-Wildfire and Rosco are two paint brands with excellent fluorescent colors
- Did you know that tonic water, toothpaste, and vitamin B all glow in black light?
