That there is so much going on around Rocky Neck this Saturday, that you should plan to pack a bag and stay over? Aside from all the great galleries, restaurants, music and general funky coolness that are going full swing this Memorial Day weekend, there are some special added attractions.
Amy’s Coffee & Cones will be featuring reggae with Soul Rebel Project from 3:00 to 6:30. If you missed them Thursday night at Madfish Grill, make sure you catch them at Amy’s, or even if you were at Madfish, you’ll probably want to hear them again, they’re that good. Then there is always cool, fun, funky and positive Brenda Malloy’s Imagine Gallery – stop in and see what’s new. Then there are three opening parties going on, so pace yourself. Rocky Neck Art Gallery will be holding Receptions for both the 2011 Members’ Exhibition and the Break Out Student Exhibit from 5:00 to 8:00pm at 53 Rocky Neck. Then at 75 Rocky Neck, Kathy Archer of White Bird Gallery and Sigrid Olsen of ISLA at 75 Rocky Neck are collaborating on an opening party, also from 5:00 to 8:00pm – a must do. And stop by Khan Studio and the Good Morning Gloucester Gallery at 77 Rocky Neck G3, just for the adventure of it, and check out Chris Murray’s new exhibit of 3d photography of Mexico (everyone who has seen it says the same thing: “WOW”), as well as work by the man behind GMG, Joey C. and contributors “Art Rocks” Paul Frontiero, photographer extrodinaire, Sharon Lowe and “Did You Know?” EJ Lefavour. Then check out Wendy Demuth Photography’s soft opening at 77 Rocky Neck, G5 (next door to Khan Studio and across from ISLA).
At 8:00pm, Madfish Grill will feature Young Guns Jamboree with Joe & Renee, Charlee Bianchini, Pete Lindberg Band and Jake Parde Band. I think Rocky Neck is just about the most happening place in the Universe this weekend – so be here, or be somewhere not quite as cool.
