I am VERY excited to announce that I'll be participating in the South Pasadena Arts Crawl on Saturday, February 11. I'll be doing a marbling demonstration from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Book ‘em Mysteries (1118 Mission Street). I'll also have cards, individual marbled papers, and framed artwork available for sale.

The South Pasadena Art Crawl is a FREE event offering something for everyone: gallery openings, artwork across all mediums, live music, and interactive art experiences. Charlie Chaplin’s Modern Times, a black and white classic, will be played on the side of the Iron Works Museum, courtesy of Videothéque (our FAVORITE video store!). For more details, check out the South Pasadena Chamber of Commerce.

All attractions at the Arts Crawl are within blocks of one another so you can easily park and walk to everything. Restaurants will be open and Food Trucks will be on the street. Shops and boutiques (South Pas has so many really cool stores) will offer special sales in what’s being billed as a “neighborhood night-on-the-town.”

Emmett and I attended the last Arts Crawl in October and had a wonderful, wonderful evening. I had no idea there were so many AMAZING artists and SPECTACULAR galleries in South Pas! I even splurged and bought a piece of artwork for myself (which I am still madly in love with!). It's because of the Arts Crawl that I put "become a part of the South Pasadena art community" on my 41 for 41 list.

I hope you'll come out and enjoy an evening filled with wonderful artists and musicians as well as take in the unique feel and charm of South Pasadena. It's why Emmett and I love living here!
