Knight Arts
AZ Gallery and the Black Dog are neighboring spaces in the Northern Warehouse building. In both venues, there’s going to be loads of art to see (I’m particularly eager to see Alex Kuno’s new work in his “Miscreants of Tiny Town” series, currently on exhibit at the Black Dog) and live music throughout the weekend. In addition to its group exhibition — a mix of 18 artists, many of them co-op members and a few invited guest artists — AZ Gallery’s line-up of musicians to play in the gallery includes roots rock, blues and jazz with the likes of Jeff Ray and Hurricane Harold, Dave Ziffer Jazz/Fusion Guitar, Bernie King and the Guilty Pleasures and Le Boom Boom (see the full schedule here). The Black Dog, a favorite crawl hub and watering hole for both artists and gallery-hoppers, will be humming as well, with food and drink and, weather permitting, a spot on the patio from which to see and be seen; live music will include performances by Todd Harper and his Angry Birds followed by DJ BK-One on Friday night.
