It's that time of year again. I'm accepting orders for custom pet portraits ahead of the holiday season. $125 for a 10x10in drawing mailed to your door (shipping included) and a high quality scan emailed to you as well. (One animal per drawing only, sorry! All types of animals welcome!)

I usually am full by December 1st so if you might be interested, please get in touch with me well in advance (like now!) I do these in the order that I receive requests.

If interested, email 2-3 photos to [email protected] and let me know if you'd like a name banner or any specific flowers/plants around the border. If you have a need prior to the holidays (a bday or anniversary coming up?) I can try to work with that as well if you let me know the deadline.

Just coming here for an appeal for money - as it goes. 

We’re in the process of creating a vibrant community space in the middle of our small, economically struggling town of Lansdowne, PA. In an “if you build it...” sort of effort, all sorts of people from town are banding together to create a free outdoor community space from out of next to nothing. 

The space will be free to use for events, with all ages programming from story time to DJ nights to readings to middle school sports team BBQs to skillshares to bingo. Just fill out the submission form to request part of The Landing for use - a true community vibe with no barrier to entry. 

But - we need some funds to keep this going. We’ve been eeking along trying to build as much of it for free as we can, but with a project opening date of May 27th, it would happen a lot easier with a little help. 

Want to chip in ten bucks?

Hi. I'm taking commissions for pet portraits again this year. $120 for a 10in by 10in black and white drawing, shipping included. I'll also email you a high res scan of the drawing. I have a limited number of space for portraits in time for the holiday season. Email me at [email protected] with 2-3 photos, let me know if you'd like a name banner and any specific flowers, and if you'd like a portrait in time for the holidays or have no deadline. Thanks!

The Afterglows, by The Afterglows

12 track album

Sam Cook-Parrott and I made a lo-fi record and it’s out now. We recorded it in bits and pieces over the past 18 months at home on different 4-tracks and tape recorders. We are excited about this album, listen when you have a quiet sec to yourself.

Some photos from First Time’s the Charm 2013! 

We are getting some seriously inspiring answers on the band submission forms.

Here’s part of an answer, in response to the “Why First Time’s The Charm?” question: “We are old: 40+ plus range. People describe some of our identities as bi-queer, fat/a person of size, black, female, a parent, and other cool stuff not always highlighted in the scene. Mostly we like to make music and jokes and dance. We have ENERGY for days, and this showcase would give us the opportunity to do new things with and for new people.”

Band submissions are open until Friday! Sign up today!http://goo.gl/forms/4O1sLLhDRa

[fttc2016-blog]

Band submissions are open now! Sign-up here! 

When completing this form and creating your band, remember that the makeup of your band is a microcosm of our scene! What does your band say about representation in our scene and city?

FTTC submissions open on February 25th and close on March 4th. While we take into account the order in which we receive submissions, slots are not granted on a rolling basis. In the event that more bands sign up than there is room for, we will use these submissions to choose bands that best fulfill the spirit of this event. Please sign up any time within the next week!

Only one submission per band is necessary. Each band member does not need to submit.

Sign up in the next week!
