Roanoke Times

The Unicorn Stables Project got a short write up in the Arts & Extras w/ Mike Allen

One of the comments on this write up was: "This show was disturbing to me. Very reflective of our violent times…I left feeling empty and sad for humanity."
Success!

Shrines and Other Things




Saturday, January 15, The Stables had its most successful event to date. Shrines and Other Things had over twenty artists sharing their interpretation of shrines through photography, poetry, paintings, installations, and sculpture. It was serious, it was lighthearted, it was scary, and it was amazing. Thank you to all the contributing artists and community members that made it possible!

Opening!


Our Gallery Opening  was Saturday, November 13, 2010, and we were amazed and gratified by the support and attendance. Our opening was a chance for the community to see what we were all about as a group and an institution. It has certainly set the stage for the success of our subsequent events.
