Armory Center for the Arts

Friday, March 9, 2012, 6-10 PM
Enjoy a city-wide free evening of art, music and entertainment as Pasadena’s most prominent arts and cultural institutions swing open their doors. 

See Richard Jackson's Accidents in Abstract Painting, showcasing paint-spewing army ducks and paint-filled airplane wreckage. Plus, solo shows by Jocelyn Foye, Nicholas Grider and Dawn Kasper. Also on view is a group exhibition of work by undergraduate students in the Department of Entertainment Design at Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA.

Performing througout the night, Buddy Zapata's Junkshop Republic conjures visions of saw horses, old 78 records, and cast off voodoo dolls with melodies from the Mississippi Delta treated with an East LA sensibility and infused with California-grown soul. The ArtNight Minigrant program is funded by the Arts & Culture Commission to expand participation by Pasadena-based non-profit arts and culture organizations, arts organizations without venues, independent non-commercial galleries, ensembles and individual artists.
