Hello Internet land, I am required to write this blog for my internship at gallery 211 located in down town LLaramie. The first day has been the most promising so far. seven gusts came in to see the Karen Kimel show at the time I sat in a chair next to the big window and drew in my search book until my four hours were up. Nate Able is our Galley advisor and was getting ready for the next show to be curated by him. So far we were off to a promising internship.
Day two ish no guest came in. I swept the floor
next time and after that two gusts i moped the floor and Kaitlin and I started painting the walls back to there original white color for Nate's show, our cards came in so Kaitlin and i handed them around town and put in local businesses. Kaitlin also made us a makeshift desk to sit at, much more professional and cool.
next time was the opening, I missed my night class to be there, very good turn out of support.

One of the artists came in with his son. He liked the gallery space, his son however remarked it was more boring than art museums usually are. thems the brakes
June 24th
A women came in very interested in how this museum gets money and suggested that we send out post cards so people could donate to the museum. two other men also came in for a look, so far no poor remark on the art itself. the gallery however was attacked by mosquito's and I was eaten up. I used one of the publicity cards to ward them off.

rained today. The rain kept the mosquito's and art viewers away. only my Friends came, but they did like the art. the power went off in the last half hour, so we sat there and talked to the dimmed art with the rain outside.
I do promise to keep a better more updated accounts for these adventures in the gallery from now on, just had to start by getting caught up. more on Thursday! thanks art and Internet world, also pictures to come...
