Holly Holly Hobby Hobby Anniversary Party

HHHH ANNIVERSARY PARTY

It’s been a YEAR since Anni and I began collaborating under the name Holly Holly Hobby Hobby. The past year has been filled with zine-makin’, girltalk, spilled beers, noodles, boytalk, and cat hugs and we look forward to celebrating these things with YOU on Friday, July 16th!

If you’re around Philadelphia this Saturday, check it out in person at the Trickgo Zine Yard Sale!

Anni & I will be representing Holly Holly Hobby Hobby, of course, and will have our work plus some zines from friends! See you there!

With the printmaking-minded art world of Philadelphia already in the throes of Philagrafika 2010, we’re about to get side-swiped with Southern Graphics Council this week!

One of my favorite blogs, Printeresting.org, is hosting a series of events that I am excited to take part in…  Holly Holly Hobby Hobby will be out in full effect!

On Saturday, March 20th, it’s the Quick & Dirty Printeresting Swap at the Print Center!  Read all about it in this Citypaper shout-out.  Pins, prints, zines and more from Holly Holly Hobby Hobby!

And then… on Thursday, March 25th it’s COPY JAM!

Oh, and it is spring time! Did you hear?

new & news

After only a handful of (pretty minor) mishaps, I think I have successfully transferred this website from Blogger to Wordpress. This is boring to write about already, so I’ll stop, but at least there’s a bit of insight as to why there is no content here (yet) ‘cept for the blog.

Just thought I’d share some news: I am now a member artist at Space 1026.

2010 = BYY

okay, okay, I know that it is only two weeks into the new year, but 2010 is seriously looking like it will be the Best Year Yet!

Tons and lots and a bunch of things happening, and most in the next few months are in conjunction with Philagrafika 2010! From January 29th to April 11th, PRINT will rule the art scene in Philadelphia and, jeez, I know I am not the only one excited about this!

The calendar of events speaks for itself to show the enormity of it all… and I’m so happy to say that I am participating in a few of the projects/shows going on! Expect many more posts about these events as they happen, but let’s get get started…

In honor of featured graphic novel Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi, PMG will host a night of zine-making, presentations by notable local zine artists, and a private viewing of the exhibition Etchings: Works on Paper by Isaiah Zagar. Art supplies and locally-brewed beer will be provided; however, participants are encouraged to bring their own interesting art materials and refreshments for their evening of graphic arts in the Garden. Guest zine-artists include Mark Price, publisher of Zine of the Month Club, Anni Altshuler and Leah Mackin of Holly Hobby, Jenni Drozdek, Michael Gerkovich and Gregory Labold.
