One of the first things I noticed about Vince Gedgaudas’ sculptures was that they didn’t have faces. Not one of them. The heads were a radical departure from the norm, looking more a futuristic impression of some terrestrial visitor rather than a human. Still, I found them fascinating and wanted to know more.

by Kate Falluca
Michelle Cascio Photography and Model Casting takes new models and turns them into “agency ready” machines for both Editorial and Commercial markets. Michelle enjoys the Commercial market which allows her models to just be who they are; no worrying about fitting into a stereo-type, clothing size, or age bracket. Whoever, or whatever, you are, there is a place for you. And it’s family friendly!!!

John Conlon and I first met in an abstract class at Lemon Street. At first John seemed a very shy person. Slowly his sparkle in the eye New England, dry wit surfaced. John’s sensitive, insightful comments of artists’ work, talent and personality integrated very easily into the gallery. There’s an appreciation for his thoughts and direction. His work exhibits these personal characteristics.
Where are you from originally?
What brought you to Kenosha?

Well, now there are 716. Welcome, please, The Bathroom (”A Good Place to Read”), a new poetry magazine published by Racinian Nicholas Michael Ravnikar.
A couple of caveats up front: This is not the poetry of Robert Frost. Nor is it a magazine like, say, George Plimpton’s Paris Review, that you actually could carry into the bathroom. Continue reading →

It was an evening of celebration.
On Friday evening, April 11, community leaders joined the Lakeside board and supporters of the Rhode to celebrate the grand opening of the new west auditorium. Already a winner, the new theater has been playing to full houses for the children’s shows. Music and laughter, food and beverage, pride and pleasure permeated the evening.
