His work has affinities with the surreal worlds of such writers as Kafka or Poe, but Semtner’s beautifully lyrical works simultaneously call to mind such disparate visual sources as Art Nouveau, Dutch genre painting, and ‘sixties horror movie posters.

Urgent News! Wintery Mix Forces Closures During First Fridays
Posted by Christina in Special Events at First Fridays on February 4th, 2010
UPDATED: 5:50PM FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5TH
Damn this wintery mix! Haven’t we had our requisite winter weather already?!
Unfortunately this third winter storm to hit the Richmond Region couldn’t come at a worse time, just in time for First Fridays! Yippie! (insert sarcasm)
I’ve spent most of the last two days taking calls, sending emails, watching weather reports, and praying for a turn in the forecast, but at this day’s end, it looks like we can’t change the 100% forecast of snow and sleet, so many of our Downtown businesses and organizations have decided to close for tomorrow evening but there will be a select group braving the weather to bring you great art and delicious dining.
We haven’t heard from everyone yet, but here’s the most current list of who’s open and closures for Friday, February 5, 2010. Please check back for updates!!
While it’s nearly impossible to get everyone in place to designate a postponement date, be on the look out for a possible make up date on Friday, February 19. (Weather permitting)
And don’t forget, that many of the sites have activities planned all month long so there are plenty of reasons to head Downtown on days other than just First Fridays. Our small business and cultural organizations need your support to keep operating, so show them all some love and get there soon!
WHO’S OPEN:
- The Belvidere on Broad restaurant
- Bistro 27 *offering dining specials & 1/2 price wine

Our Letter to the Editor published in Style Weekly
Posted by Christina in Uncategorized on January 28th, 2010
Our Letter to the Editor of thanks and additions was published this week in Style Weekly; published January 27, 2010.
Basically had to note that First Fridays Art Walk would never be without the support and shared enthusiasm for the idea by the Executive Board and Membership of Artspace gallery, which was located at 6 East Broad Street, where art6 is today. They supported my crazy idea in 2000 when I was the director and served as the fiscal agent to see the project off the ground. This is a very important piece of information and history that I discussed in my interview for the recent “Richmonders of the Year” story, but didn’t make it into the article. So next time you head to Plant Zero in Manchester, head directly to Artspace and thank those guys for being in the forefront of collaboration and vision for their community then, and today.
|
It is with sincere thanks that we write on behalf of our organization and the participating venues of our First Fridays Art Walk program for recognition as Style Weekly’s 2009 Richmonders of the Year (Cover Story, Jan. 6). Artists, business owners, nonprofit and organizational representatives, neighborhood leaders, residents, sponsors, volunteers and enthusiastic members of the community have given much of themselves to help in the revitalization of downtown and to improve our overall quality of life. Each has made an impact in their own way, doing much often with little, holding onto a dream of a better Richmond and a celebrated creative community that is without doubt, world class. We are humbled, as Style’s editorial team chose this diverse group as “the people whose actions made waves, created change or symbolized a broad lesson for the community.” We have been fortunate to work with so many over this past decade whose energies are boundless and whose passions for Richmond and the arts have kept us motivated. But this story is not complete without credit given to Artspace, a pioneering gallery of Broad Street. Without the support of the gallery’s board and membership in 2000, the First Fridays concept may not have materialized in Richmond without their leadership, and we are indebted for their shared vision. Katrina C. Fontenla, Board President |
It’s so nice to receive an award from City Council…especially if you know about it.
Posted by Christina in Uncategorized on January 27th, 2010
You see, it started with a cryptic email from Councilman Samuels on Monday evening apologizing for wires getting crossed on this “Person of the Year” award that he wanted to present to me, which I assumed he was referring to the Style Weekly “Richmonders of the Year” recognition (which occurred around January 6). Since this was around 8:30pm and I was sitting at The Camel with a pint in front of me waiting for Taylor Barnett and gang to start, I left this to figure out in the morning. This was a HUH? moment.
But around midnight after I got home, I remembered that I hadn’t checked my voice mail messages since I’d been in meetings most of the day, where low and behold, I find a call from Councilman Samuels’ assistant from 4pm, requesting my presence two hours later for THAT NIGHT’s City Council meeting to accept “an award for First Fridays.” To say the least, I’m REALLY shocked and confused at this point. The two pints don’t help. This was a WTF? moment.
I didn’t get to put the pieces of this puzzle together until Tuesday morning by deciphering more emails, like the ones ‘congratulating me on the award I received at City Council last night.’ I’m left with a mixture of emotions: dazed, embarrassment for not being there, annoyance at not being contact in a timely manner, thrilled with the honor, disappointed to not have been able to be there to accept it in person, then back to shocked and confused. Understand here, that I still have no idea what occurred at the City Council meeting or what this “award” actually is.
But today, I received this handsome award in hand from Amy Howard, Director of UR’s Bonner Center for Civic Engagement, and it is a Community Service Award, and is lovely. Luck had it that her colleague from UR was at Monday’s City Council meeting for another reason and was able to accept the award on our behalf, since they are our presenting sponsor. This, I’m so happy the cosmos were in line on as we couldn’t do what we do without the University of Richmond, so the honor goes to them for sure.
At this point, I’m working on the details with Councilman Samuels’ office for a more appropriate presentation at the upcoming First Fridays. I’ll check back in with the details once I know more.
This whole situation has taken me by surprise. This can’t normally be the process for this sort of thing, is it? While it’s a huge honor that I’m so grateful for, I must admit that I’m left scratching my head and feeling deflated. Why now/this particular date? Why was this coordinated so quickly? Why wasn’t I given appropriate notice? It would have been easy to contact us in advance and for me change my schedule to attend, plus this would have OBVIOUSLY been an event that we would have liked to have shared with our supporters, the participating First Fridays venues, plus the public.
It makes me feel a little tired.
What are you doing at First Fridays & this month?
Posted by Christina in Uncategorized on January 7th, 2010
I FINALLY got our website updated so PLEASE go there right now and check out all of the EXCITING EXHIBITIONS opening tomorrow and COOL SHOPPING and DINING you can take advantage of! Or better yet, make a weekend of it and stay at one of the local lovely hotels. Dine, drink, shop and mingle with no driving to do. Sweet idea if I do say so myself!

Happy January!
Yikes! I’m making a dive into real online writing and not sure what to think about the first effort
Posted by Christina in Uncategorized on January 6th, 2010
If anyone is reading this, you’ve likely heard or seen enough of me already. But I’ve got to tell you about another place you can glean some insight into the local arts scene. Through our new online sponsor relationship with the awesome people at www.Richmond.com, I’ll be writing a monthly “must see” type of article of the forthcoming exhibitions or events at First Fridays.
The first entry went up today and it’s ok. Not bad, not great. The shows are much better than the piece. That’s what I get for being insanely busy and overwhelmed with end of year work, company in town, husband getting ready for big new years eve gig (musician), not to mention moving our office (which is taking FOREVER thanks to what appears to be bad realtor) and then there was this whole “Richmonders of the Year” thing this week. (ha!) I know I was putting sweat on the brow of the Richmond.com editors but they cheerfully said ‘no problem!’ They’re nice that way. I know my writing is better than this first piece and I hope to not jump the gun and send off a Tweet to tell everyone to check out my worldly insights next time until the links and photos are up. Ugh. (Sorry Karri and Colleen!)
Anyway, check out what I’m looking forward to in January at some of the participating First Fridays galleries:

Richmonders of the Year!
Posted by Christina in Uncategorized on January 4th, 2010
Style Weekly has honored First Fridays Art Walk galleries, business owners, and organizers (us) as the 2009 “Richmonders of the Year”
Now this came as stunning news to us to say the least. I’ve been worried about the story as you never know what’s going to end up in them and this being a “cover story”, well that just lays on the pressure even more. While I have issues with some of the points (which almost always happens with news articles or editorials), I feel it’s a fair review of the program, obstacles that small business owners deal with, and the varied opinions held by many involved and/or located Downtown.
I feel that it’s important to address the following items noted in the issue.
1. While the audience may be majority white, they make up the arts community in Richmond. It’s an unfortunate and unhappy fact, and one I wish would change and hopefully by our efforts will change the way people look at arts and culture. The audience at First Fridays is very diverse though and is something that we’re proud of. It wasn’t that long ago that you’d find most Richmond events fairly segregated based on race or age but you can’t say that about First Fridays. We’ve broken the trend on Richmond event demographics and because our program is open and inviting, we encourage everyone of all races, ages, classes, whatever, to attend; and demand of it.
We also have in fact contacted many of the Broad Street small business owners to see if they too would like to be involved and for whatever reasons they have not. One reason that would certainly have been noted if they had been asked or there was room to print it, is that most of these businesses are daytime operations, like Pawn Shops, and don’t meet the program’s purpose or feel. Personally, I think pawn shops are cool and would love to have them included to diversify the program even more plus we need more retail open downtown, but hey, maybe in the future.
I hope everyone of whatever race downtown will go out and meet their neighbors and start a conversation. First Fridays was formed to do just that in part, and we’ve succeeded. There wasn’t much conversation taking place between neighbors back in the late 90’s but that’s not true today. Things are never how you’d like them to be but we’ve actually made leaps and bounds.
2. “It’s extremely frustrating,” Newton says, explaining that every budget cycle she lobbies City Council for more support — to no avail. “I go through my plea, my funding plea, and there is always something else that needs to be funded first. I’m used to that.”
This statement needs to be noted and corrected, as we have never asked City Council for funding. Who we have contacted is, our individual city council representatives over the past 5 years, and departments within the city, such as Economic Development, Community Development, Parks and Recreation, and the Mayor’s office. But the frustrations lie with the former administration and not the current, and I feel that was not expressed well.
3. “I go through extreme love-hate relationship with the city”
I swore I said “Richmond” in this quote but maybe “city” slipped out but what I intended was “Richmond” as a whole and was not referring to the city administration. Sure some of my issues over the years have been with city rules, regulations or lack of vision or decisions made that I might have personally disagreed with, but those feelings also come with dealing with people in general and regards lots of other things not related to First Fridays! Having lived in one place for almost 20 years brings on such feelings no matter where you live. It’s not original to RVA. In short, I think this line was taking out of context.
We’re humbled nonetheless by this recognition and thank Style Weekly for this recognition as well as all of our supporters for their continued encouragement and enthusiasm. There is no better time to support your local business and community.
We are truly grateful for the generous support of our Presenting Sponsor: University of Richmond
and our other major sponsors:
Venture Richmond
CenterStage Foundation
Metro R Media
…as well as the many great participating venues in which make First Fridays a reality, and are the most deserving of this recognition!
