BARRIO HOLLYWOOD HOSTS ART SHOW (press release)
“The Barrio Hollywood Neighborhood Association (BHNA) has partnered with El Rio Neighborhood Association to present its second annual art show, “Artistas del Barrio Hollywood” on October 7, 2017 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Over 15 artists along with several performance artists will participate in the show which is at the El Rio Neighborhood Center.
The art show will open with a blessing by the 4 Winds Drum Group whose members hail from the Tohono O’odham Nation. During the show there will be “intimate concerts” with musicians Raymond Armstrong, Michael Dues and Robert Ongley. Pia Mogollon will be performing her “living statue” routine during the show and blending in with the art work.
Ray Armstrong, BHNA Art Director said,
“Last year I had the pleasure to put on BHNA first art show. We had over 18 artists and volunteers for this wonderful event. That experience showed me that it’s important communities have a venue for local artisans where there work can be experienced by a wide variety of people. This year our show is even better as we are including performing artists.”
The art show will be on October 7, 2017 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the El Rio Neighborhood Center and is free to the public. The Center is located at 1390 W. Speedway Blvd., Tucson, AZ
520 791 4683. The art show is a partnership between BHNA, El Rio Neighborhood Center and Southern Arizona Arts and Cultural Alliance (SAACA) Open Studio Tours.”

Dropped by this one day art tour, and enjoyed paintings by Lisa Kanouse and Alex Kouvel (landscapes). Various artists (over 15) with artwork on display till 4 p.m. today. Pia Mogollon was part of a large chair sculpture, which I basically missed as she was cleverly disguised.
