Columbia Design League Presents


The Columbia Design League and the Columbia Museum of Art Present "701 Whaley".
MAY 11 @ The Columbia Museum of Art
6:00 cocktails
6:30 showing

I've been working on a documentary for the past year, talking to people in the Pacific/Olympia/Granby Mill village area, who shall be referred to as POG Mill Village...How's that? Too long. How bout just POG.
Anyhoo, I've interviewed about 10 or so people thus far, shot over 14 hours of tape, gathered a good bit of materials and am continually researching -particularly 701 Whaley, who shall now be referred to as "701 Whaley". "Gallery 701" was a great name but now it is "701 Whaley" or just "701" if you like.... Say it with me " 7 0 1 Whaley" Again - 7 0 1 Whaley
7 0 1 Whaley
7 0 1 Whaley
7 0 1 Whaley
7 0 1 Whaley
7 0 1 Whaley
It just rolls off the tongue don't ya think?

On May 11th I'll show some clips I've edited and some other things not seen yet.

My plan is to continue to talk with folks and find archival photos/film and then to finish the documentary when the building is renovated and in use - which the hope is 2008ish.
