The biggest art deal going on in Athens this weekend is the annual MFA opening at the Lamar Dodd School of Art, which takes place tonight at 6 p.m. in the Dodd. The MFA students have their own site, where you can see some of what they have to offer, but the reception is always loads of fun. The 2010 MFA Candidates include Catherine A. Bell, Stephanie Blair, Matt Boland, Amanda Bray, David Calton, Kim Deakins, Jennifer Desormeaux, Tate Foley, Emily Hadland, Brian Hitselberger, Robert August Peterson, Alison A. Smith, Stephanie Voegele, and Jessica Wohl (above). The exhibition runs through April 7.
Tomorrow (Saturday, March 20) at 8 p.m. at The Globe downtown is a launch party for the spring issue of Young, Foxy & Free, Michael Lachowski's fun, arty magazine.
