First Friday Downtown Sioux Falls

-
Tomorrow is the first Friday of March so what does that mean?  Downtown Sioux Falls will be celebrating First Friday. First Friday is an all-day event for shopping, art and entertainment. On March 4,  Sticks and Steel will be participating in the First Friday and has graciously opened a space in the store to allow me to display a sampling of my photography.  I got the call from the Sioux Falls Art council on Tuesday saying they had an opportunity for me to display some of my work if I was interested.  Well of course I was.  It was a happy sort of a shock to get the call and I still feel kind of giddy. 

I will be setting things up tomorrow afternoon and will be present from 6 - 9pm.  Sticks and Steel is located in the 8th & Railroad building.    There will be artist at various locations downtown Friday evening.  If you have a chance come downtown for the evening.  If you do stop by Sticks and Steel and say hello.

This particular building was home to St. Joseph school (and later renamed Gehlen Catholic) in my hometown of LeMars, Ia.  As the area, town and school grew additional buildings were built and eventually the original structure was no longer used or even safe to use.  On the right side of the photo you can see the original church and pastor's house.  Just a few weeks after I took this shot the building was gone.  Talk about lucky timing.  The pastors house is no longer there either.  The block looked very different to say the least. At the same time it was becoming evident that the original church building was in ne
