Through the end of July, the Orpheum Children's Science Museum will proudly host their first, but not last, art show. Local students have created the artwork on display and their collection represents one of the larger social purposes of art — art therapy. The majority of the paintings are a copy of one of Leonardo Da Vinci's most widely-recognized painting — the Mona Lisa. Another aspect of the show asks its viewers to interact with the exhibit — the viewer can select a piece of photocopied artwork and color it in. The viewer's artwork can then be displayed on an easel alongside of the paintings in the Museum.
Colleen Montgomery, curator of the show and an associate at the Museum, brought "The Mona Show" to the Museum last week and so far, it's been well-received. Smile Politely interviewed Montgomery about the exhibit and its success. Click the jump to read her answers.
A little bit of rain didn't stop the show last Wednesday night at Mike 'N Molly's. Opening up the show was Dave Samuel's side project Mordechai in the Mirror, followed by Peoria's Tina Sparkle, and closing with The Living Blue. Expect an iTunes release of The Living Blue's new record Walk, Talk, Rhythm, Roam this August.
