It’s the first month of the new year and having had PLENTY of pre- AND post-holiday marinatin’ bliss
it’s now time to wind up and get the creative juices flowing again.
And thanks to Joanne Ludwig (aka Jojo aka Mizz Joanne aka Oakland Angel) we did just that.
With the new ARTISTs LOUNGE happening at Somar, we got to mingle with fellow creative beings
– mediums being live art, spoken word, digital photography and rap –
all while surrounded by the current monthly art install.
Now that’s what I call motivation nation.
‘Cause as the saying goes,
birds of a feather…
But first things first. Eat then pliggity play.
