Adios, PIKE PLACE MARKET!

DEAR FRIENDS OF TwAC,

We wanted to fill you all in on some late breaking, bittersweet, Twilight news. The 31ST of AUGUST is going to be the last day of Twilight's Pike Place Market store. We've given it everything we've got, and more, and it's just not rebounding from the recession fast enough to make it viable for us to stay open.

The effects of this economic slow down has hit Pike Place Market all over, and we're one of many businesses making a move. Thankfully we have our West Seattle Junction location to focus on! The Junction shop has weathered this storm extremely well, and we're very proud and lucky to have a supportive and dynamic community over there that supports Fresh Local Art.

The three of us are definitely melancholy over leaving Pike Place - it is after all where we got our start - but getting through these trying and uncertain financial times requires decisions made from a strong business sense and not emotional places. We are also working hard to make sure that anyone looking for Twilight post August 31st knows exactly where to find us. Please help spread the word.

LONG LIVE LOCAL ART!!!
Much love & appreciation,
Mary, Cheryl & Erin

Just a little peek at STOP! COLLABORATE!

Opens Thursday August 13th, 6 - 9 PM during the West Seattle Art Walk!

Each participating artist contributed one of their own "completed" pieces. After drawing names from a hat, another artist from the group then took the once completed piece to expand on it. You ask "..but, but will they respect the work of the other artist? Is this normal?" The answer is, "who knows".

"STOP! COLLABORATE!"


OPENING: Thursday August 13th, 6 - 9 PM during the West Seattle Art Walk!

Featuring: Eric Osborne, Matt Calcavecchia, Nate Stottrup, Marty Gordon, Stefan Caswell, Mara Rivet, Justin Hillgrove, Jessalin Beutler, Mark Gunderson, David Enriquez, Brad, Strain, Clare Bowers, John Osgood, Debbie Bianchi, Stephanie Doll and Todd Karam.

The first annual "Stop! Collaborate!" show, curated by local artist Todd Karam. This is one-of-a-kind opportunity where 16 artists from Washington and California collaborated with each other. Of course there's a twist. Each participating artist contributed one of their own "completed" pieces. After drawing names from a hat, another artist from the group then took the once completed piece to expand on it. You ask "..but, but will they respect the work of the other artist? Is this normal?" The answer is, "who knows." Slide, roll, dance, jiggy, jump, run, skip, breakdance, moonwalk your way to Twilight in West Seattle. Whatever you do, don't miss this one-of-a-kind show!

Erik Chillman and dj Joel Dipietro will be spinning during the opening so bring your dancing shoes and props, if you plan on becoming more than a spectator. Dance music, and old hiphop/funk party stuff! Spectators welcome, the spectacle needs it's muse!
