Happy belated August to one and all!!!!

Hi Folks,


    I do hope you are all enjoying as much of this New England Weather Summer that we are all too used to around here!! The heat cannot and has NOT deterred out incredible ROMulin Community as our shows are and  will continue to be so much fun. I/we do want to thank each and every one of you that join us at ROM for each Venue we hold and with each Venue we go home smiling having just witnessed a wonderful Community of Artist's at work!!! We had 2 totally wonderful features since my previous Blog as Computer issues and my lack of computer knowledge holds me from being a dependable blogger!!!


Let me wholeheartedly thank Carolyn Waters for her fabulous feature on 7-11-11 and David Hoffman for his Feature which he chose to call, an Evening of Flamingo vs Classical gutar playing. Both Carolyn and David did  a fantastic job at entertaining our audience at ROM with totally different and both totally wonderful styles and artforms. I do believe that is the beauty of The Comunity and the Museum of Fine Artist's at Roslindale Mike that keeps us an ever changing venue which is what the Arts are all about and we are so blessed in our area to have some of the finest venues for Music & the Arts right here in New England and in our case more specifically the Greater Boston Area!!!


Using that as a segway I do want to make mention of a few Venues of folks very near and dear to us at ROM. I will add what they have said and ask you to contact them directly for any follow up questions.


The first of mention will be 2 of our very dear ROMulins, (Junko Ogawa & Craig Sonnenfeld), will be taking their artform to CT. this weekend and here is the info:
