5 anti-holiday tips from Erin McKeown
- The most wonderful time of the year? Tell that to Erin McKeown, the quirky singer-songwriter whose new album is a humorous but pointed collection of anti-holiday songs. It’s called “[Expletive] That!” and features soon-to-be-classics such as “It’s a Very Queer Christmas” and “Christmas (Love It or Leave It).”

Art is about stories. When I walk through our galleries, I listen to visitors talk about art, creating their own narrative. Art tells a visual story first. Then you begin to craft your own ideas about the piece. What was the artist was thinking about – flowing lines, moody lighting, wash of color, how to pay their utility bill?
It’s my business to know people’s stories. Development is a wonderful job, really. Match people with what they love and they want to support it. Getting to know their stories is an honor.
There are incredible art stories here now. Photographer John Weller had a run-in with a Waddell seal that nearly knocked him senseless. Mark Eberhard has a visual feast of a painting called On the Edge. Each bird has a story, a reason they are on the edge. Come for a visit. I’ll tell you a story…or listen to yours.

Love this painting.
