More Weekend Pacifists photos

Here are some more photos of the opening night. One of Sieben and his awesome characters. He made some super cool 3D box sculptures. Mike Myers hallway, rad stuff, silkscreens on colored foam that he painted into with some brush work as well. My family and I. I'll probably post a few more later. Want to get Andy's wall up, his stuff was great. Thanks for looking. Thanks for spinning records Shepard.
