NONSTOPPARTY: Art Shows September 6th - 8th
Thursday September 06, 2007

You like art. You like to go see some art shows now and then. Well, put on your walking shoes, and/or jetpack, and get ready for tonight and tomorrow and the next day, because Thursday, September 6th through Saturday, September 8th, appears to be some kind of attempt to have the most art openings in a three-day period, maybe ever. Here is our short list of why we wish that whole "Beam me up, Scotty" thing wasn't just science fiction.
