Kenosha’s Bloomin’ Days ‘08
See the MusiciansKenosha’s Bloomin‘ Days started just last year and it has sort of become Kenosha’s flagship of summer fun. The entire downtown is turned into a music and entertainment zone - booths, fun and educational displays scattered throughout Harbor Park, sidewalk sales, musicians playing on every corner on from noon till night on the main stage.
The PeopleThis year’s Bloomin‘ Days was a bit different though, abbreviated by the rains vendors rushed to pack and musicians pulled plugs and ran equipment to the cover of the main tent. But this is Wisconsin, and fun can always be found in the beer tent, and so it was.
The Radioactive Squirrels
But enough words on to the pictures.

February 3rd, 2008 — Anderson Arts Center, Exhibit, Events, Photography, Kenosha
We don’t like waiting in lines, and we especially do not like waiting in the cold! However, waiting in line to get into the Anderson Arts Center “PHOTOGRAPHY ~ An Exhibition of Visual Images” was warming, because it meant that an arts event in Kenosha was very well attended.
Congratulations to the winners and to Anderson for the awesome turn out!!

Andrea Algiers, a recent MIAD graduate, is currently exhibiting her newest collection of photographs at 716: Fine Art. The title of her exhibit is “Far Flung” and it will be on display until November 18th, 2007 at the gallery. Andrea has this to say about her exhibit:
“Everyday I observe the vastness of my surroundings along with how minimal it can be. I have this constant awareness of the small role I play in the immense space that surrounds me. My connection with the space is based on the understanding I have of it, or lack there of.
These photographs represent the search to find my relationship with this space. It is a space that I strive to understand. I break down my environment to its most minimal form, in order to show its relationship to me and to its superior plane.”
Recently, I had the opportunity to ask Andrea some questions about her life as an artist.
Dave: What first inspired your interest in photography? What continues to inspire you? Continue reading →

A Raw Look into the Life of an Artist Side A
by Tammy Peacy
From Kenosha to San Francisco to Boston to San Francisco to Honolulu to San Diego and back again, Franco Tarsitano opens his life in art to interviewer Tammy Peacy.
I recently met with photographer, painter, infectious laugh producer, gallery manager, dry martini drinker Franco Tarsitano at Pazzo’s where he sealed his fate as my B.F.F. (and ever) by saving me from a hideous insect and telling me I look twenty-three.
His life has been multifarious to say the least. He’s performed cabaret, run a modeling agency, been a lifeguard, a photographer and the personnel assistant for National Onion Singing Telegrams. Now after thirty years away, Franco has returned to Kenosha and found a new place to call home in the Lemon Street Gallery. Continue reading →

Bum-bum is a young, bright and beautiful, blue-eyed blonde. She is a Lady, a Wife, and a Mother. She is also a prolific published writer. Introducing her is not an easy task. She can be reticent, even resistant. She avoids sharing information about herself.
For those not familiar with the name Bum-bum, we should mention that outside the home, she is better known as Tammy Peacy.
