Key West Events June 2008 Now we are full into summer. The ocean water is really warming up. The first couple weeks on the island are a little quite. The cruise ships are down to only a few a week instead of a few a day as they head off to start making their summer tours. But once Schools start letting out we notice a big jump in the numbers of families coming down. We also are starting to get into our rainy season. For the most part it is just a shower a day and they do not last long. Sunday June 1, 2008 "The Icons" - Sculptor J.

Her upcoming exhibition, which opens with a reception at the Armory on Friday, May 30, explores new ground both literally and metaphorically. “The Keys have few painters as prolific and industrious as Letty,” said Eric Holowacz, director of The Studios, and a fan of the artist’s remarkable ability to capture the essence of her subjects. “And it is wonderful that her recent paintings reveal the nature and uniqueness of our neighboring island.” It has been three years since Nowak completed her monumental Faces of Key West, a series of portraits that numbers in the hundreds. Stock Island, which is on view at the Armory through June 19, is the artist’s first solo exhibition since 2006. “This is a show I have been working towards for years,” says Nowak. “In my new studio upstairs at the Armory, I now have the time to refine and finish this exhibition. Years back, before the Faces of Key West, I did little architectural studies of simple or industrial buildings. I discovered an entire island less than a mile north of us, full of interesting features. Stock Island, diverse and visually striking, is the perfect subject for me to return to at this point in my career.” Some would say these paintings are also about change and transformation. The exhibition certainly represents change for Nowak’s focus, but it also tells of recent developments within Stock Island itself. A few select portraits are scattered throughout the new work in a sort of yin-yang dynamic: some depict the characters who continue to give Stock Island its raw character, and others reveal the people who are transforming the land and waterfront through redevelopment. There are paintings of landmark buildings and the new constructions-in-progress, as well as careful details of often unnoticed things. “I relearn so much about painting with each of these canvases and every new subject I tackle,” explains the artist. “It forces me to start small and them make different decisions about line and color, compared to the hundreds of portraits I have finished over the past eight years. Perhaps the landscapes are like little studies which I might some day incorporate as a backgrounds in future portraits. Who knows?” Nowak moved to The Studios of Key West last November after closing the Lemonade Stand Art Studio, which she ran for six years. Now based in one of the 12 affordable artist studios at the Armory, she is now able to pursue painting almost full time. She also is part owner of the new Fury Surf Shack, located in the Westin Marina. “I’ve seen a lot of Key West paintings, but not too many Stock Island scenes in local galleries,” she says. “I find it extremely interesting out there, and if my upcoming exhibition can actually capture the sense of place, I might even turn the results into a book about what I find intriguing about Stock Island.” Letty Nowak’s new exhibition, Stock Island, opens at the historic Armory building with a public reception from 6 to 9pm on Friday, May 30. It remains on view and open to the public through June 19.

"Sheri Lohr's poems of the Everglades, gather over years of visiting and observing this extraordinary Grassy River, are proof that love of a place, a sharp and informed eye and an exact and sinuous way with words are the true poet's tools. From the instructions of how to make a good cup of campfire coffee, to the awed descriptions of osprey, ibis, alligator, and even the mysterious Purple Gallinule, Sheri Lohr takes us on a journey we would not have missed for worlds." - Rosalind Brackenbury, Keys author, poet, and journalist. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8:00 p.m. Vagina Monologues -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8:30 p.m. Naked Boys Singing -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sunday June 8, 2008 "The Icons" - Sculptor J.

A new book by award winning Key West poet, Sheri Lohr, will be released this month by SeaStory Press. Journeys on the Grassy River is a collection of poems celebrating the Florida Everglades, written during more than a decade of visiting different areas of the 'glades, in all seasons. Publication was made possible by a grant from the Anne McKee Artist's Foundation. Three events introducing the book will feature an exhibit of oil paintings of Everglades landscapes by local artist Martha Cook. Review: Journeys on the Grassy River, 60 pages, hard cover, $15, available at Key West Island Books, at SeaStory Press.com and on Amazon.com. "Sheri Lohr's poems of the Everglades, gather over years of visiting and observing this extraordinary Grassy River, are proof that love of a place, a sharp and informed eye and an exact and sinuous way with words are the true poet's tools. From the instructions of how to make a good cup of campfire coffee, to the awed descriptions of osprey, ibis, alligator, and even the mysterious Purple Gallinule, Sheri Lohr takes us on a journey we would not have missed for worlds." - Rosalind Brackenbury, Keys author, poet, and journalist. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7:30 pm Young Artists Opera Program Contact Key West Woman's Club -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8:30 p.m. Naked Boys Singing -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Friday June 13, 2008 "The Icons" - Sculptor J.

This month's book: The Time Traveler's Wife, by Audrey Niffenegger. From Booklist - On the surface, Henry and Clare Detamble are a normal couple living in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood. Henry works at the Newberry Library and Clare creates abstract paper art, but the cruel reality is that Henry is a prisoner of time. It sweeps him back and forth at it's leisure, from the present to the past, with no regard for where he is, or what he is doing. It drops him naked and vulnerable into another decade, wearing an age-appropriate face. In fact, it's not unusual for Henry to run into the other Henry and help him out of a jam. Sound unusual? Imagine Clare Detamble's astonishment at seeing Henry dropped stark naked into her parents' meadow when she was only six. Though, of course, until she came of age, Henrywas always the perfect gentleman and gave young Clare nothing but his friendship as he dropped in and out of her life. It's no wonder that the film rights to this hip and urban love story have been acquired. Bring your tea, coffee, or other afternoon snacks and let's discuss! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6:00 p.m. Figure Drawing Session -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7:00 pm Monologue/Audition Class Contact Red Barn Theatre - 319 Duval St - Carole MacCartee - 296-5587 So you want to be an Actor?
