The Powell Building, on the Plaza, will again serve as 3rd Friday’s headquarters. In addition to fine art displays, handmade items and local crafters, 3rd Friday is pleased to welcome children’s book author, Eleanor Vernice Siyon, for a special book signing for her latest work Sylvia Visits the Land of Angels! This story is truly unique, as it combines the book’s rich illustrations, with an accompanying CD, where the story is beautifully sung and narrated over original music. “Rich expressive illustrations set the tone for a fun-filled spiritual adventure and poetic verse flows freely as feelings of peace and happiness are imparted by the original music” says Ms. Siyon. Eleanor Vernice Siyon is an educator, author and playwright whose primary focus is enhancing the spiritual development of children from all faiths and spiritual persuasions. Also on the Plaza, Sushi de Kanpai, Plaza Deli and Main Roots Coffee will all be open with amazing 3rd Friday specials, so stop in for a bite or a drink before you venture on!
Sure to warm your heart, The Art Institute and Gallery opening reception of its 15th annual Blooming Artist Youth Show, will be held from 5 – 7pm and is a must see! With over 250 works submitted from children age 4 – 18, you will be dazzled by works from precious to down-right professional! Awards will be given in Preschool, Elementary, Middle and High School divisions. The Foyer Gallery will feature artwork from the 2012 High School Division winner, Katie Engberg!
The Wicomico County Public Library is also having a special after hours event: The Murder of Abraham Lincoln! The program is from 7pm – 9pm, hosted by Mr. Roger Arthur, and is part of the "Making Sense of the American Civil War" series. The program will explore the many theories that have emerged about this most famous of assassinations.
On the West End of East Main Street, Seasons Best will be celebrating and keeping this sweet, with a cupcake bonanza as well as having tons of special sales! Their huge inventory or unique one-of-a-kind items, makes it the perfect place to pick up a gift for your special someone. Then head upstairs to SWAC, for “The Art of Love” poetry reading from 6-8pm. Poets and writers are welcome to share up to 2 poems each, followed by group discussion, as well as the authors’ commentary. Stay the whole night or just stop in to enjoy some wine, cheese, and a reading or two. Then stop by Mojo’s for a drink to top it all off!
