AVA "Paint your Fortune (cookie)" Show

The Astoria Visual Art Center will sponsor a show derived from inspirations taken from Chinese fortune cookies. Obtain one and paint an image from it. Entry fee is $5 each for up to 3 submissions for members; $10 for non-members. Bring the fortune with the entry. CROA is still a member until July.
Ed. note: we have heard that the AVA is somewhat worried about the competition and is criticising the growth of Astoria's art community. Their anxiety has been expressed to AstoriaFog and the Pirate Dinner Theater sponsored by the Nisbett gallery on Commercial St. CROA was also fired upon for what was construed as sneaking under the circus tent when it joined AVA last summer as a group.
Relax Kids! When wartime makes prices skyrocket and the price of rice, corn and fuel causes food riots (i.e. Haiti last week), the art community traditionally grows rapidly and comes to the rescue. Be prepared for increased music, art, literature, poetry, dance, & etc., all over the world when the price of a bag of tortillas becomes $5!!
