Sorry Barb might be the closest Tampa Bay’s punk-rock/DIY scene gets to an art-school band these days, and this weekend the ensemble soundtracks a silent auction and inaugural membership drive for the art galleries at Hillsborough Community College (members will get pre-reception mocktail hours, specialty prints, swag, and more for their support of the gallery).
Affordable art from about two dozen of the Bay area’s best-known artists will be on display and for sale, and the event is a good chance to check out two of the campuses current art shows: “In Their Own Words” where artists got to be out-of-the-box transparent about certain works, plus “Touchy/Feely” where Alyssa Miller has curated an exhibit that encourages the visitor to literally handle and manipulate work from contemporary fiber artists (including Aneka Ingold, work pictured).
