More Magic at the Wizard
The show has ended
 Opening night is Friday September 12th 7pm to 11pm and runs for two weeks. Hour d'oeuvres and wine will be served. Wizard of Oddities is located next to Arsenal Lanes at 4314 Butler St. in Lawrenceville. It's just me this time and I will be showing work from the Voyeur series that has been completed over the last 4 years. So it is a retrospective of figure work, social commentary and unique framing options. Most likely, this is the first and last time you will ever see this work together as a unit.
