The Sounds of Love- Valentine's Day Show
On view: Tuesday, February 14, through Thursday, February 16, 2012
The Black Box Student Gallery presents an unforgettable event that will leave your ears ringing with... The Sounds of Love! This event will be a toe-tapping good time in which we will hold a contest for who can create the best musical shoes. Shoes will be judged based on creativity and weirdest, strangest, prettiest, most original noise. Dr. Jarvis, the chair of the UCA music department has agreed to be our guest juror for the evening. This is a chance for art students and professors, or anyone else who wants to participate, to be creative and show off your skills on a sweet sounding pair of kicks. Anything and everything is aloud..so long as it doesn't ruin our floor, of course. Come on, use those creative juices to express yourself in any way fit through the sound of music...on your feet. There will be lots of sweet treats made with love for you and your sweetie, plus the sythesizing stylings of EZ DUZIT! This synthesizer-er will swoon you with his sweet jams, and will be great back ground music to accompany our musical shoes!
Also, please bring an extra pair of shoes if you plan on displaying your fantastical foot-ware in the gallery! Shoes will need to be picked up by Monday (Feb. 20th) so we can get the gallery ready for the next show.
