Seattle First Thursday Art Walk

On January 7, 2010, I visited four galleries in the Pioneer Square neighborhood during the First Thursday Art Walk:

(1) Greg Kucera Gallery - exhibiting Mark Newport and John Buck in the galleries, along with Sol Hashemi and Jason Hirata on the sculpture deck; (2) Soil Cooperative Art Gallery - exhibiting a New Members Show for Iole Alessandrini, Julie Alpert and Ellen Ziegler; (3) James Harris Gallery - exhibiting photographs by Amir Zaki and sculpture by Ron Nagle; and (4) Howard House - exhibiting works by Gretchen Bennett and Yuki Nakamura.
