Chilmark concert adds art
After a successful run of winter concerts, Ballyhoo and other Island musician friends will gather for another concert and potluck supper at the Chilmark Community Center on Saturday, Feb. 23. For the first time, Nina Gomez Gordon of Cobalt Fine Art will install a group show of local Island artists during the event. She is currently looking for submissions of the theme "music." All media will be considered, and the deadline is Friday, Feb. 22. For more information, call Nina at 508-693-5895 or e-mail her at nina@cobaltfineart.com.
