One final gig for the unprecedented second year now in the spotlight! Not so much an art show/exhibition (like the upcoming annual retrospect), more of another one-night-only in-house show & tell (like last month's newspaper event), with sneak peeks at works-in-progress. Not doing the usual avalanche of self-promotion as it's great to let go of the reins and let professionals take over the marketing. It's been a wonderful experience being hosted by these folks - I still need to recap the State Fair + Solstice events, which went fantastic. On a more serious note, seeing as how Alaska is still one of the top places in America getting hit hard by yet another COVID surge - now from the Delta variant - I'm keeping it low-key for the sake of safety. As this is indoors, we'll take special care to restrict traffic flow and mandate masks. I'm personally not only vaxxed but also boostered - but since I teach face-to-face and am probably the most likely plague rat in any gathering, it's a prudent concern to ensure protocols are in place.
"Join Greater Fairbanks Chamber of Commerce Artist of the Year and Fairbanks Daily News-Miner cartoonist Jamie Smith for a day of drawing demonstrations as he works on upcoming “Nuggets” feature panels. Take a peek at the process as he works on-site creating his cartoons that have been appearing in our paper since 1988. Also as a special bonus, he will be signing prints of a new poster from a recent Bureau of Land Management Artist-in-Residency in Eagle, Alaska."
