New Paintings at Eyes on Fremont
We first ran into Craig Cundiff’s art at the Alibi Room, every person in the paintings had glasses. It was love at first sight. It took us awhile to track him down because by the time we actually contacted the Alibi Room about the paintings they had already moved on to their next location. A google search, a facebook search and a couple of emails/days later we were able to find Craig’s blog and arrange for a meeting with the artist himself. Unfortunately all of the original pieces were sold, but fortunately for us Craig was willing and able to do a couple of pieces just for us. He dropped them off today and we couldn’t be happier. They will add the perfect pop of color on our walls. Drop by to check them out, or check out some of Craig’s non-glasses related art at The Porch Light while its still there!
Help Haiti with Eyes on Fremont’s Haiti Response Fundraiser Page
We made a donation today through Mercy Corps to help the people in Haiti and were inspired to start our own fund raising page. Mercy Corps will be focusing on the immediate needs on the ground, like providing clean water and sanitation. As you’ve undoubtedly heard on the news, water is going to be a huge need in the next days and weeks. Mercy Corps has expertise in this area. They will quickly transition to recovery efforts and likely implement a cash-for-work program that hires local people to clear roads, rebuild damaged infrastructure, etc. Not only will it help them look forward, feel like they can make a difference and help repair their damaged communities, it will put money in their pockets so they can make their own decisions about what to buy, what they need, etc. As importantly, it will help restart the local market economy. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
