17.08.08
“We’re not going to settle for what the world is, we’re going to strive for what it might be.” — Barack Obama. And on thing that definitely will be - is one helluva frikin’ awesome art exhibition at Andenken Gallery (2990 Larimer Street) running Monday August 25 though Thursday August 28th.
The Manifest Hope Gallery exhibition celebrates arts pivotal role in creating cultural momentum and shines a spotlight on artists across the nation who use their voices to amplify and motivate the Obama campaign. The gallery exhibition highlights 5 central themes of the progressive grass-roots movement: Hope, Change, Progress, Unity, and Patriotism.
While we’re super-stoked that this event is coming to Denver’s very own Andenken, we’re even more stoked to be participating in it and representing Colorado’s progressive art front alongside Scot Lefavor, Evan Hecox, Josh Holland and Shannon Bonatakis, Mike Moore of tres birds, and Rick Griffith of Matter Studio. The list of participating artists for the show is unbelievable, we’re truly honored and humbled to be involved. Mark your calendars. You don’t wanna miss this one!!!

Hi!
August 18, 5:30 pm Mary TeichmanWell, I’m very disappointed, as I’ve been working all week on my submission to the Art for Obama contest and thought I had until midnight tonight. I can see not that I only had until noon. (just like an artist not to read the fine print) I didn’t really care about “winning” but I did do this art specifically for the Obama campaign, as I wanted to try to do SOMETHING. So! I’d like to offer my submission to anyone who wants to look at it, to use if possible for whatever anyone might want to use it for (!) No personal glory here but I wanted you to see it.
Is it possible for me to email you my piece, or send it to you?
I’m very disappointed that I missed the deadline.
Thanks!
