This is from a recent email from Tsuyoshi Ito, owner of Philadelphia's Project Basho. I am proud to have two photographs in this inaugural show in their new gallery space.

Project Basho is hosting an opening reception for its inaugural show titled "Friends of Project Basho" on Thursday November 8, 6-9 pm at Project Basho Gallery. The opening reception is open to the public as a part of 2nd Thursday Openings in the area, and will be complemented by the musical styling of DJ Einstein. The show will run from November 8th through November 30th.

"Friends of Project Basho" will feature the works of students, instructors, monitors, darkroom users, and others who have been actively engaged in photographic activities at Project Basho. The walls will represent the community and the diversity of talent at Project Basho, as well as display a vibrant segment of the current photographic scene in Philadelphia.

If you have not visited the newly-renovated gallery space yet, this is a great opportunity to see the space. With a 14ft ceiling and unique architectural details, the gallery is spacious and intimate at the same time. Project Basho will be working with other art venues in the area to bring exciting shows with visually stimulating photographs to Philadelphia.

For more information about the show and reception, please feel free to contact Project Basho.
