slideluck potshow - ann arbor, MI thursday, november 1st
i’m going to be participating in michigan’s slideluck potshow this thursday at the Michigan Theater in downtown ann arbor.
“Slideluck Potshow is a slideshow potluck to which members of the arts, photography,
and media communities bring food, drinks and a maximum of 5 minutes worth of slides.
The evening begins with a couple hours of dining on the home-cooked delights of participants,
while drinking full-bodied red wines and mingling. There is no entrance fee or guest list;
one’s admission is a nice bottle of wine, some lemongrass shrimp salad, squash soup with
bacon and pineapple, or a braised lamb shank with rosemary risotto.
Slideluck Potshow is a forum for exposing editors, curators and artists to new work, while infusing
the arts community with a non-commercial vitality and refreshing exchange. Photojournalists,
painters, video and installation artists, and fashion photographers will all show their work alongside one
another in a spirited and relaxed atmosphere. Presenters will range from the very accomplished and
distinguished to the up and coming, but regardless of status, none is allotted more than 5 minutes for their
slideshow. Participants are encouraged to take creative risks and to not just show their portfolios.”
