80 for Haiti

Benefit Ride for Haiti Relief: 100% of entry fees goes to Mercy Corps: 80 miles for $80! February 13, 2010

"In response to the horrific situation in Haiti, AdventureCORPS will organize a cycling event called "80 For Haiti" on February 13, 2010. It will be an 80-mile ride, on Old Hwy 80 in southeastern San Diego County, with an $80 entry fee. 100% of the entry fees will go directly to Mercy Corps, one of the most respected relief organizations worldwide. The "80 for Haiti" start / finish will be in Pine Valley, CA. The route is spectacular, on absolutely quiet roads through rolling terrain. AdventureCORPS will absorb all costs, but food, drink, and support sponsors are being sought."

We're teaming up with Andrew at Adams Ave Bikes to do the ride. Join us. Sign Up!

01/11/10 : THE IMMORAL FOREST

STEVE FLORMAN
METAL & WOOD
flormanarchitects.com

When we moved into our space here at the Blind Lady one of the first things we fell in love with was Steve Florman's sculptures. It wasn't long before we were asking our new neighbor to display some pieces in our space. This conversation quickly turned into displaying quite a bit of his work for a brief show. So, for one night (Monday, January 11th) the Blind Lady Ale House will become a gallery of sorts.

The Immoral Forest investigates the previous life of wood and revives cast off elements in ways that question relationships between man and nature. Society’s corrupted pieces and dishonest parts are reformed. The objects created with abandoned elements are misguided growth; photosynthesis gone wrong.
