When I walked in, one of the staff members greeted me and gave me a short tour, then let me carry on through the gallery without making me feel pressured, which I really appreciated. There's so much to look at. I was drawn to the surrealists, but there's really something for everyone. It was also cool that they had a temporary exhibit in partnership with a local high school, where students got to display and present their work. So not only is this gallery an artistic gem, but it's also community-oriented. Super awesome find right by the Lincoln commuter rail. If you're in the area, I'd definitely recommend checking it out. I also met the owner, who was really knowledgeable and nice, and I have to acknowledge his awesome personal style.

She cancelled our first one. Still very enthusiastic about my work, she rescheduled but was a no-show without a word. I thought something had happened to her, but then found she'd posted three days later on social media. So she was alive, anyway. When I contacted her about the second missed studio visit from three days earlier, she apologized and asked to reschedule again, but I'd had it by then. I was tired of moving my heavy pieces into one room for easy viewing (and making snacks from scratch) for her not to show up.

Driving to The LAP Gallery I caught myself wondering "what is a gallery in Waltham going to be…read morelike?" I mean, Waltham isn't exactly known for its art scene (at least not to my knowledge). I was even less optimistic about attending a show titled "Fuck Yeah America". I figured it would be a show comprised of pretentious, white, male art students bitching about how bad their lives are. I wasn't exactly interested but I was going with a group of people so I figured I'd grin and bear it. As I said above, we did drive and I thought about how inconvenient that must be for a gallery so far outside of the city...then we reached it...the LAP, Downtown Waltham. The gallery itself was attractive. A decent size space with nice hardwood floors. Surprisingly...clean. The show itself was well curated. The work reflected individuals inspired by America but not the preachy, extreme work I had anticipated. The preparatory work was clean and well done. I was very impressed. I was greeted by Pat Falco, 1/2 of the LAP team and found him very interesting and engaging. We discussed the show and the LAP Gallery before I met his partner, Elliot. I can't say how much I appreciate meeting the people who put on the show. Once it was time to leave, I realized there were a lot of other things to do in the area. There's a cool book store next door and plenty of restaurants. It was nice to know that for my future visits I wasn't limited to one space for a trip outside of the city. Go to the gallery, grab some food, walk along the Charles, and hop on the commuter rail back to Boston (if you don't have a car, it's right there!). All in all, good time, good people.
