Lots of amazing names on this list! Some I know, some I don't, looking forward to the exhibits. And... NICK BLINKO?? Oh man. I have been a fan of his art since discovering the first Rudimentary Peni LP back in the '80s. I bought an extra copy of "Death Church" so I could put the fold-out poster on my wall. Wow. Hope the man is doing OK these days...

I'm looking forward to seeing at least one of the exhibitions during our stay - I'd love to see all of them, but I'm afraid there won't be enough time...

The Providence Art Club is a ten-minute walk from the Biltmore hotel and the Cohen Gallery is a five-minute walk from there. If you can see one, you can most certainly see two. I'm a local and I'm quite looking forward to it!
