An unstoppable triumvirate: International canned beer, gnomes, and swords
Are you into international canned beer? How about gnomes? Swords? What about all three of these things together as an artistic statement? Well, have I got the gallery opening party for you!
In celebration of International Canned Beer Month, a mythical holiday created in 2002 by local poster artist David Witt (aka DWitt) and friends, the Back Alley Gallery (262 East 4th Street in Lowertown St. Paul) is hosting "The Sword and Gnome Art Show".
The gallery show, which runs through Sunday, August 17, will feature new drawings from DWitt as well as other works by local artists inspired by canned beer, swords, and gnomes. The opening party, this Friday from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m., will feature canned beer. of course. There are also rumors that a gigantic can of beer will make an appearance as well (perhaps a keg?).
For a full list of scheduled events, including a trail run (with beer), softball tournament, and music gigs honoring International Canned Beer Month, check out www.InternationalCannedBeerMonth.com.
