Think, suggests designer, maker, and gatherer April Pride, of an art opening and a house party rolled into one.

KEXP DJ Tim Betterley is providing the tunes, Hilliard’s will be poured and consumed, and art (more on that in a minute) will be available to trade for American cash. And it all happens in Pride’s Madison Park domicile at 1214 42nd Ave E.

‘I have always pondered why we don’t view art in the environment of a home,’ says Pride.

He/Art on Saturday, May 12 from 5 to 9 makes it happen with contributions from Irene Wood (you’ve seen her accessories in our fashion spread; she’ll show work in oil, acrylic, ink, and polyurethane here), photographer Jules Frazier, encaustic and ink-on-paper artist, Jen Ament, and glass artist JP Canlis.

You should go, and make yourself at home.
