All Souls Night at Mountain View Cemetery

What to do on Hallowe'en when you're an adult? You could do worse than to wander through Mountain View Cemetery, where there are little tents with musicians, torch-like burning logs, and lots and lots of candles and lanterns.

A gentle, misty rain was falling and there was a wandering choir providing an gentle, contemplative ambiance.

Virtual Gallery Experience

Two captures from 360-degree panoramas we had taken of our show at Little Mountain Gallery. They are a great way to see what the show looked like if you were unable to get there.

The Little Mountain Gallery Show

Aya put in many long hours, gallery-sitting. The flowers came from our good friends Yoko and Yasuyo.

Keith was very happy with the framing of this etched-acrylic piece. The cast shadow becomes the drawing.

The cut-paper piece was a big hit.

We had a table for art and photos from Waka and Tao, who mailed their Thirty Days Project material Japan.

Promoting Our Show

Tim Gerwing brought his equipment and played a fantastic set of music during our closing event. He graced us with a rocking version of "Zeppelin".

The flowers were Aya's idea.

Sidewalk chalk was the best advertising dollar we spent.
It cost a dollar.
Many visitors said they had seen the writing and just decided to come in.

They also liked the balloons.
