POTATO NEWS

  • January 19, 2005:  Our CULT of POTATO show is starting to garner attention in Las Vegas, where the World Tour Premiere Party happens at the Contemporary Art Collective, February 4th. This traveling exhibit, featuring home towners Andrea Avery and Nina Ganci along with others in the International Potato Arts Collective, will be making its way to St. Louis in July (opening at Mad Art July 8th) and then will be traveling on to New York City and Rotterdam. Those of you who haven't attended a Potato Eaters Party will want to start clearing your calendar now. If we don't see you in Vegas...we hope to see you at Mad Art in July. Viva Las Tater!
