Greely Myatt Installation Images
The weather complicated things for ArtWeek. We had to cancel all events Thursday and Friday, including Greely Myatt's opening and lecture. We were still able to install his work in the Mezzanine Gallery. Please do go and check out the work. It is a great show!
Wild Wednesday!
We had a great time Wednesday during free hour painting, throwing paper airplanes and taking selfies! We had lots of painting supplies for people to use, they could paint whatever they wanted. There were some good things created!
Be sure to check out Mainstreet during free hour Friday for FREE Henna Tattoos and see the championship of the paper plane contest!!

Then we had a submission that was too long to be considered for a prize, but we enjoyed it so we included Hailey Lain's Eye Exam.
The judges had a tough time decided who should win, but here are the top three:
- 1st: Jacqueline Wojcik - One With the Dust and Trees
- 2nd: Krista Trostle - down_SPACE
- 3rd: Emanuel Fuentes - Mission to the Moon
Here are the winners with their ArtWeek swag bags!
Kudos to Emily who did the opening animation and bumpers for the screening.
Thank you to all the participants!

Every Wednesday the animators at iNet share interesting animations/graphics/advances in technology with each other for Watch Cool Stuff Wednesdays!
