Friday Fun: Garbage Art
From Art News Blog:
Remember, this is just for fun!

Nothing Like Seeing “Wal-Mart” and “Art” in the Same Sentence
When I saw the headline Wal-Mart heiress roils art world while “taking a break” and visiting MSN Entertainment (my biggest vice-entertainment gossip!) how could I ignore it? While I still consider Wal-Mart to be evil, at least they are using some of that power for good for a change (even if it is in their typically agressive way)…

However, they’ve found online success and you gotta root [...]

Want some free stuff?
So I’ve been looking around the office and realized I’ve amassed some very cool CD’s, DVDs, and other swag that I’m really not taking advantage of, nor does the Arts Council necessarily need. So rather than let it sit here and go to waste, I thought maybe I could share it with you!
I’ve made up [...]
