Oh What a Night!

I came home last night exhausted and elated. I checked my email and for some reason, the message highlighted was from almost exactly a year ago, addressed to SuJ'n Chon, inviting her to a meeting with Minh Carrico and me to talk more about opening a collective gallery. And then on July 9, 2011, here we were with beautiful art from a diverse group of talented artists, a packed gallery of appreciative guests and people spilling out on to Jackson Street.
Mil gracias, maraming salamat to all of those who helped us give birth to this dream, who celebrated with us and who continue to help nurture IDEA Odyssey onward.
