There will pizza from Parkway Pizza and snacks for those volunteering. \nOur two locations for this cleanup are paved parking lots\, with easy access to paved and unpaved trails.

Volunteers also have the option to stick to sidewalks and city streets. \nAdvance registration for this event is not required for individuals or for groups of 10 or fewer. \nIf you have a group of 10-20 people\, please contact FMR’s Volunteer & Outreach Coordinator at volunteer@fmr.org (link sends e-mail) or 651.222.2193 x27.

SUMMARY:Vine Arts Center hosts a solo exhibition of original illustrations by Keith Vargo
DESCRIPTION:Do you enjoy visual art inspired by your favorite bands? Step into the captivating world of “Fakery. Made Daily\,” an exhibit of faux album covers by artist Keith Vargo\, under his very own faux music label\, “Altair Flair Records.” \nFeaturing nearly fifty meticulously crafted illustrations – each a striking album cover printed on aluminum – the exhibit showcases the best works from Vargo’s seven-year journey navigating his creativity while living through the challenges of narcolepsy. These images\, drawn from an extensive repertoire of nearly 2\,000 creations\, are a visual diary\, capturing fleeting moments and emotions with haiku-like brevity. \nRooted in the everyday and inspired by his paintings\, sketches\, and photographs\, the exhibit blurs the line between reality and imagination\, creating a charming collection of faux bands and album covers\, “Fakery. Made Daily.” As a tantalizing addition to the fake album covers on display\, fake tour merchandise\, album track-listings\, and compelling band/artist bios are in development\, promising an ever-expanding and immersive experience that makes fakery fun – for a change. \nSaturday\, May 18 2pm – 5pm \nSaturday’s\, May 18 – June 8 \nViewing: 11am – 5pm\nhttps://sites.google.com/view/keithvargo/home
