October First Friday Art Walk
Posted by: Lincoln Arts Council
Every First Friday of the month is an event that many communities across the nation celebrate. In Lincoln's Art Community, it allows a chance for local art galleries and establishments to open their doors to the public and have open house events where the public can come and see what is new in the art world. Here on the Lincoln Arts Council website, we offer a complete guide to all of open houses for Lincoln's First Friday Art Walk. If you know of an event that is happening, that is not listed in our guide, please feel free to email "Events" at events@artscene.org and we will be sure to post it as soon as possible.
Support our local art scene and see what's new in the world of the arts! Happy First Friday!

Porridge Papers
http://www.porridgepapers.com/
Friday, October 5 from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm
Location: 1422 South Street
We are closing out our summer season of First Fridays with an amazing show!
Local Artists have created beer themed art to be sold that evening. Each piece will be letterpress printed on our small batch, handcrafted beer paper. The paper will be made with the finest quality spent grain from an Octoberfest Lager brewed here in Lincoln by Modern Monks Brewery.
In addition to the art, we will be serving beer brats boiled in the same Oktoberfest Beer that the paper was made from as well as sampling the Monks
Porridge Papers’ goal is to give artists a space to sell their art without giving up part of their hard-earned cash in commission fees. Profits from prints sold will go to the artists themselves and to keep the good times a-flowin’ at future first friday events.
We want to give a special shout out to Modern Monks, Bolzen Beer Band, and Cetaks Gourmet Meats and all the artists that are participating!

Join us as we welcome renowned watercolor artist William Holland. William is traveling from the big O (that's Omaha) to hang out with us capital city folk for a night of conversation, imbibing and, of course, art appreciation.
Mr. Holland seems to be quite prolific in his approach to watercolor painting. His use of color is vibrant. His line work is at times highly structured and at times playfully abstract. His final product(s), in our humble opinion, are simply stunning.
However, don't just take our wo
rd for it. Come on down during the First Friday art walk and see for yourself!
William has big plans for our little print studio on Friday evening so be prepared to purchase some of his work on a t-shirt of your choosing, printed LIVE while you wait, watch, drink, point, and giggle.
Refreshments provided by a local brewery of our choosing.
We'll see you on the art walk folks.
