The Eyes of the World

"This West country will produce some mighty artists. The greater part of this land must remain, always, in its primitive naturalness. It will be easier here, than in the city crowded East, for a man to be himself. There is less of that spirit which is born of clubs and cliques and clans and schools--with their fine-spun theorizing, and their impudent assumption that they are divinely commissioned to sit in judgment. There is less of artistic tea-drinking, esthetic posing, and soulful talk; and more opportunity for that loneliness out of which great art comes. The atmosphere of these mountains and deserts and seas inspires to a self-assertion, rather than to a clinging fast to the traditions and culture of others--and what, after all, is a great artist, but one who greatly asserts himself." -Harold Bell Wright

Just wanted to share with you this little ray of sunshine. A quote I once stumbled upon in a borrowed copy of Wright's "The Eyes of the World", (1914).
I consider it a sort of personal philosophy.

EVENT: Fringe Fest

Come out and see our local artists! We will be located along the front of New Albanian Bank Street Brew House. Each of our artists will have a collection of pieces for sale in their own mini booth.

"Still, with Harvest Homecoming, New Albany's annual urban harvest festival, upon us, the NABC is intent on celebrating some of the other fruit borne of our neighbors' hard work and creativity, and so is offering its own - more New Albanian - civic arts festival, Fringe Fest 2010!

The goal of last year's inaugural Fringe Fest was "to create a cultural counterpoint to Harvest Homecoming and provide unique music, interesting exhibits, captivating films, and – most importantly – good beer. Fringe Fest embraces everything creative and original, and welcomes anything outside of the social ‘norm’”.

And so it shall be this year as well, with the added incentive of trying to maintain the creative atmosphere for a full week instead of just doing “booth days” downtown. Here's a view of the schedule as it stood at 'press' time; expect there to be changes, mishaps and serendipity - and remember that all events will take place at the NABC's Bank Street Brewhouse.
