Lancaster, PA artist Matt Allyn Chapman recently proposed a wildly exciting idea to us. He said, choose 10 albums that you love, 10 that are important and speak to you. Allow me to listen to them, absorb them and I will then paint for you…what I hear. We could barely contain our exuberance and began choosing our "10". Matt is ready to reveal his 10 corresponding paintings and we invite you to join us in the shop on Saturday, May 18 at 7:00pm as he unveils these new works. We are so excited to share with all of you the very first public display of these new pieces by distinguished and celebrated artist Matt Allyn Chapman. This event will be part of our shop's weekend-long 3rd Anniversary festivities!
