September is coming... the first week may be slow, but there is a lot coming soon.

This week, Saturday is a great night to go out: "Assemblage (group Show)" at Las Cienegas Projects, and Marcus Civin at The Prop Shop.

The legendary tattoo artist Kat Von D is opening a new gallery Wonderlandla with a new body of work by Kevin Llewellyn. The exclusive private view is this week and the public opening is next.

On Artcards Review, I am excited to introduce two new articles:
- "Featured Artist: Miles Mendenhall" -- Helen Homan Wu catches up with one of the stars of Bravo's "Work of Art" series.
-  "Paradise Now! Art Meets Music on the Lower East Side" -- Howard Hurst covers an awesome event in downtown NYC along with great photos.

Hope to see you out there, either this week or next!
