And low and behold we have Halloween! The "holiday" which started as a protective instinct of parents to have their children dress-up as the ghouls and goblins so the real ghouls and goblins wouldn't be able to tell the difference, protecting them from being stolen and taken into the mystical world...Trick or Treat, a saying, eludes to the fact a trick will be done to you if you don't give a treat...a little bit of intimidation wouldn't you say? but all in fun.
Even though the Art Stroll has already passed, Firehouse Gallery has a new exhibit entitled "After Dark" which can be a variety of different subjects. Juror, Don Garbera had chosen the winners. He is an artist from Stamford, has been a professional photographer and business writer for forty years. He was an editor of Technical Photography magazine, published many articles and created a number of magazine covers. Presently his favorite mediums are oils and watercolors. Don is a graduate of Visual Art, NYC, the Institute of Photography, NYC, and the New School for Social Research, NYC. His photographs and paintings have been included in numerous group shows in the New England area where his works are in many private collections. Although he is retired he still produces photos for a photo stock house in New York City. And you can find his work at SoBoBo!
Visit Firehouse Gallery! See the creations! They are opened every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday from Noon until 5 pm. You might want to check to make sure on the closing time, since it is getting colder and darker the Gallery might be closing at 4 pm instead.

Jan McLean's "Street Talk" series lends to the dark-side of the street instead of the "sunny-side of the street," creating a sense "one should walk down the center of the street to avoid ALL dark doorways, alleys and corners."

Marcia Wiltsie's "Shabby Sheep" represents the wool to be spun to make the warm clothing needed for the upcoming cold or even "the stockings to be hung by the chimney with care in the hopes of ST. Nicholas would soon be there..." And "Yes, Virginia, There Is A Santa Claus" - Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Twelve Days of Christmas, and Little Christmas are creeping up on us.
