Days Are Shorter

The days are shorter and the time to get your vote in for the People’s Choice Award at the Coos Art Museums’ Biennial Show is almost gone. Do you want to wake up Thanksgiving Day and find that you haven’t voted? Of course you don’t and that’s a good thing because the voting ends November 12 and that is a long time before Thanksgiving!

Now I know all of the excuses and I’ve used a bunch of them, but they won’t count for a thing when the award is given out. Only voting counts and you have to do it.

This is the only show of the year which allows the people to select the winner and it will be two years before it is back and then you’ll have to sit on your hands for all of that time because you didn’t vote.

So save yourself the shame and suffering and go to the museum and vote, vote for your favorite, vote for a pal, vote for the best art or vote for a cute, clever or even crafty piece, but go and vote.

You get the decision this time and it should be a decision based on the best the South Coast has to offer, when the CBS cameras roll and Dave takes off on the long way home will it be with the very best art we have to offer or something that just got by because no one made the effort to vote.
