Hopefully you got my play on a B52′s reference, there. It really is quite the love shack we’ve got going here at the 10th annual 24 Hour Art Marathon. The first hot meal of the day/night/day is being served, and many a starving artist is patiently queuing to nab themselves a helping.

Smells delicious — I’d better get in line before it’s all gone!

So says the poet belting it out here with unflinching abandon circa just a few minutes ago at the 24 Hour Art Marathon. Check him out:

While I was busy poking away at some video editing here at the 24 Hour Art Marathon, intrepid photographer Adam Penney made the rounds, camera in hand, to give us a look at some of the artists and their work.

As you can see, the creative juices are flowing full tilt and we’re less than four hours in. Still 20 more to go, which means plenty more art to come and plenty more time for you to come down!

well stocked

I think this photo exemplifies how well prepared the organizers and volunteers of the 10th annual 24 Hour Art Marathon at Eastern Edge Gallery really are.

Plenty of hustle and bustle happening here in the early hours of the 24HAM. By now most of the artists have arrived and are elbow deep in their work, while outside performances, such as monologues, opera singing and belly dancing are entertaining the growing crowd.

Here’s a peek back at the scene as people were still setting up, to the tune of some vocal opera courtesy of 24HAM volunteer Anna Moreau.
