The show got a few nice writeups and mentions. The Blade and Urban Jetset both put together lengthy pieces, and my thanks also to bloggers Jimbo, Alexandria, Cambrock, Samantha, and Craig!

Here are a few pictures of the gallery and the opening reception. Thanks again to everyone that has stopped by the show. This is the last weekend it will be up. Need yet another reason to venture to Bethesda? How about the 16th annual Taste of Bethesda.
