Things kick off with the official opening this Thursday, September 10 -- free and open to the public. Here's some info:
ALWAYS A FOREIGNERIf you've never seen Roger Shimomura's work, you've got to check it out -- his art is a trip, dealing with sociopolitical issues like war, racism and stereotypes, juxtaposing provocative imagery with popular culture.
