January 24, 2010- The SoMa String Quartet, a newly formed group comprised of four of Little Rock's most talented string players, will be performing their 3rd in a series of intimate chamber music concerts at the Warehouse Lofts.  The program features exciting new works, which are sure to delight both experienced chamber music fans and newcomers.

The concert will be held at the Warehouse Lofts, a historic auto garage in downtown Little Rock that has been converted into a loft style apartment.  With its 17 foot wood ceiling, brick walls, and concrete floors, the building provides a wonderful acoustic for chamber music.  This combined with the modern style of the building's interior creates the perfect ambiance for an evening of contemporary classical music.

Your Canvas Junkie Host

I am your host at Canvas Junkie and work in several media. I design and make one of a kind sculpture you can wear or jewelry.

As well as paint, make found object sculpture and generally will chase after anything sparkly. When I was a teen my dad would introduce me as his daughter with the disclaimer of "You know artists are weird".

Now that I have seen many years of life pass by (I'm in denial about exactly how many)............. I'm happy to be known as an artist because....... life is just weird.
