Double sided tape\, small ziplock bags\, colorful push pins\, and paper clips will be on hand for attaching mementos. We invite attendees to take a photo with their phone of their tributes posted on the board and share them on the Studio 33 Facebook Page and Instagram\, and other social media . Your share may be included in a future mural being planned and it will also be a way to share George’s message of love and peace in the world! We are having live music by local musician’s in the gallery on the 27th and 28th\, and a new non-alcoholic libation named the “Varuna Van” will be served\, created just for this tribute exhibit! \nThe exhibit is free to the public\, a donation jar will be available for those who wish to make a donation for Eli’s Garden of Healing – A Healing Garden For Victims Of Violence in Hamden\, CT. The garden was created in memory of Elijah Gomez. Elijah\, age 15\, was shot and killed while walking home from school\, he was passionate about nature\, friends\, and family. George Clarke was a close family friend of Elijah’s\, and a life long advocate for peace and no-violence. The New York Times Magazine published a Memorial Tribute to Elijah Gomez in their annual feature The Lives They Lived\, by author Dwayne Betts which pays tributes to celebrities and famous people who have died over the year\, the author’s goal in writing the piece about Elijah was to honor the life of a young man who lost his life too soon due to gun violence. Please see link to the NYT Magazine article below. \nDrop off at Studio 33 Art & Frame Gallery by January 25th\, at 140 Bank Street\, Downtown New London\, CT\, 860-442-6355\, studio33gallery@gmail.com.
