Sabay Curatorial Space scheduling shows for next season...
If any of you are in the NYC area and would like to have a solo show at a
cafe in Jackson Heights, please let me know. Only wall works, no larger than
40"x 50" or smaller than 8x10". There is no charge for these shows, but you
must be able to bring the work to the cafe the day of the hanging and stay
to help install the show. Nothing can be mailed either to me or them. (Later
this may be possible, but there will be a charge if art is shipped or must
be installed without the artist's help.) There have not been sales from
these shows, but it is a NYC exhibit to put on your resume and also a
wonderful reception with Thai food & wine or beer for you & your guests. The
