Summer's bookend

8/28/2017

 
Picture
Yes, Summer is drawing to a close:  a new chill in the evening air but what an amazing string of glorious weekends behind us!   Not long ago, Chicagoans shook their heads over nice weather wondering how we would "pay for it."   Not any more.   The entropy of discomfort has been broken--unless you consider the shenanigans of Lilliput. 
Good time to take your bike out into the fresh air and pit stop with Wishbone's long-standing weekday bike discount.  (It's Monday, remember?)   Get the blood circulating for the new projects that Fall brings.
Read something good at our counter or under a tree.  And dream a little.


MARC POKEMPNER PHOTO OPENING FRIDAY

8/23/2017

 

Harold's got the blues . . .

This Friday, the 25th, Wishbone will be hosting a reception for Marc Pokempner's themed photo exhibit in our "Couloir Bleu" gallery.   Drawn from his many years photographing the Chicago blues scene and the city's blood sport, politics, for the original READER and other publications, the show's title is HAROLD'S GOT THE BLUES.   The collection of black and white prints is drawn from Marc's books, HAROLD! and DOWN AT THERESA'S, but features other iconic photos you'll recognize of the young organizer, Barack O'Bama, as well as never-before-seen photographs of urban life in Chi Town.

The reception runs from 6 to 8 PM with the equally renowned Erwin Helfridge playing the keyboards and, of course, a nice gathering of people.   Beautiful digital prints are for sale and more information available through Marc's website http://www.pokempner.net/.

If you can't make the reception, be sure to tarry in our gallery to reflect on how far we've come (or how much remains the same) . . . as the show will be up through the month of September.
