Friends & Icons
An Art Show and Fundraiser
Admission: Free to the public
This is the story of two awesome friends who get together and make art, and talk about the future.. They call it Art Club, and they dream of one day having an art show together. Five years go by, and Bobbie Sue Schindler announces she’s moving to Houston for a Master’s in Philosophy. And so they decide to finally have their duo art show together, with friends, live music by Strategy, and treats for all!
Over time, their work has had a common thread and themes, Friends & Icons. From Schindler’s dramatic renderings of Paul Newman or hand-felted Uhura from Star Trek, to Reyes‘ finely carved 12” x 12” linoleum cuts of Aaliyah, Madonna, or Patti Smith- this show is a celebration of friendship, icons & the future.
This fundraiser will help to cover Schindler’s moving costs to Houston, including U-Haul, motels and food along the way. This art show is also a celebration of Reyes’ plan on applying to MFA programs; he’s currently thriving in PSU’s Art Department with focuses on Printmaking and Time Arts. Reyes plans to tour and share his art this Summer, as well as rent studio space this Summer so he can continue printmaking.
There will be live music by Strategy, as well as refreshments and fun times in general.
