Audobon Doc
A PBS/American Masters documentary on John James Audubon will be screening in Charleston, SC on May 2nd. The 7 p.m. premiere will take place at the main Charleston County library on Calhoun.
Local artist and gallery owner Sherry Browne and Roswell Eldridge's wife Juanita will be present to help explain Eldridge's goal of preserving the Audubon octavos.
They'll also be mentioning his new association with Operation Migration, the group co-ordinating whooping crane recovery.
Eldridge did a great job at this year's SEWE and at a recent show for Sherry Browne at her Studio Open gallery in Folly Beach. If you're downtown and in the mood for a free movie, the Main Library's the place to go to give the Audobon afficianados your support.

Hi Nick! Man, I wish I had read this before I posted that thing on the Calendar blog...I had no idea about the whooping cranes and the local artist involvement. That's what I get for not checking my RSS feed every day, I guess.
Did you go to the screening? I ended up going to Asheville that night to see Arcade Fire (good, but not overly remarkable), but I wish I could've gone. It sounded quite interesting...
