The last few people just left the Start event, sponsored by Reedley Creative at Shinn Photography’s new studio. What an awesome group of people! There were folks of all ages both participating and attending, and it seems like we went a long way toward creating some real community. David Borofka read some great work, Mike Cantu read some of his older and newer poetry, Nick McIntyre shared some of the songs he’s written, and a whole host of people shared their art work. The artwork included photos, video, pottery, mixed media, oil paintings, and other forms. But the coolest part was the connections I saw forming around the room. We really do have an impressive community of creative people in Reedley. I’m curious to see where this goes.

Anyone have any ideas for the next event?

Hey, everybody! It’s 3/6/09! Are you ready? Have your black turtlenecks and sensible shoes on? Feeling creative? Ready to bust loose after a long week and meet the coolest people in town at the hippest new scene? I have it on good authority that the Mayor of Reedley probably won’t be in attendance. So come on down to Shinn Photography’s new studio on G Street at 6:30 pm. If you park on G street and don’t see it, listen for the sounds of cool and follow them. See you there!
