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:
