“A MAD HATTER TEA PARTY” @ STEYNBERG GALLERY

Mad Hatter Tea Party

WORLD PREMIERE EVENT: “A MAD HATTER TEA PARTY”

“A MAD HATTER TEA PARTY ” TO RAISE AWARENESS AND FUNDS FOR PROGRESSIVE CAUSES

SATIRICAL ARTIST MARK BRYAN TO PREMIER HIS NEW PAINTING “THE MAD TEA PARTY part D’uh”

Central Coast artist Mark Bryan wants to take you down the rabbit hole one more time. Mark Bryan is internationally known for his clever and cutting commentary on the current political landscape.

One week before national elections are held, Bryan and local progressive groups will host a Mad Tea Party Night at the Steynberg Gallery.On the evening of October 27th all citizens are invited to participate in a night of playful political hi jinx, wear their best Mad Hatter Hat and view Bryan’s new work “The Mad Tea Party, Part D’uh”. Local blues legends Valerie Johnson, Al B. Blue and the Mad Hatters will be on hand to lay down some Tea Party blues.

In Bryan’s new parody of Alice’s famous party, Sarah Palin stars as the Queen of Hearts, Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck appear as Mad Hatters. O’Reilly and Hannity are having fun as The Walrus and the Carpenter while Tea Party activists depicted as oysters clamor for more “Tea” but are about to be served as “lunch”. Bryan will also be exhibiting his first Mad Tea Party piece and other political works.

The Mad Hatter Tea Party Night is part promotion for Bryan’s artistry, part fundraiser for progressive causes and 100% good time for those wanting a more humorous side of political antics. A contest will be held for the best “Mad Hat”, games, prizes and a raffle drawing for a Giclee print of “The Mad Tea Party, Part D’uh!”, valued at $250.00

Entry is a $10 donation, includes “tea” beverage, cake and other snacks.
