Welcome to the official Take the day. Blog

Welcome to the official Take the day. blog. The intent of this blog is to serve as a communication platform for the artists participating within the Take the day. event. This site should serve as a great unifying forum allowing artists involved to share work, ideas and get to know their fellow participants. Enjoy!

Lets thank a sponsor.

Lets thank Home Builders Association of the Sioux Empire for providing us with materials to protect the gallery during Take the day. Again, none of this would be possible without the support of our community. Remember the name.

Artist Spotlight 7: Chris Meyer and Josh Johnson

An atom. A molecule. A cell. A micro-organism.
Josh Johnson and Chris Meyer are two guys that make, what I would consider to be, fairly large sculptures.
