Jeffrey Moose Gallery is proud to announce the formation of a Virtual First Friday for this Friday, April 3rd, at 6 PM – Three galleries are participating in addition to a live musical act.
Joining Jeffrey Moose Gallery are Island Gallery and Bergh Images
followed by violinist Ranger Sciacca
Though we all opened shows in March, we will continue our exhibits through April, giving all a chance to dive deeper into the work which has been on display.
As we can’t physically join together on Winslow Way on a beautiful spring evening, I figured the work-around was online using relatively simple tools: a cell phone and a laptop. Through Facebook, we will, one at a time, stream live video from our galleries, followed by a desert of solo Violin from Island treasure, Ranger Sciacca. You must be on Facebook to view these events.
In-between each ten-minute stream will be a five- to ten-minute break, time to fill a wine glass and redirect your browser to the next gallery’s FB page. Use a digital time device to accurately follow the schedule:
6-6:10 PM Jeffrey Moose Gallery, 181 Winslow Way East, Ste F, Bainbridge Island, WA
Evy Olsen Halvorsen – New Paintings. Oil on canvas and encaustic works by a well-established Kitsap talent. Strong Abstract Expressionist compositions with occasional figurative elements speak to themes including Nordic Heritage, childhood memories and climate change. Though the doors are closed, we are still designing and building picture frames for any artwork.
6:20-6:30 Island Gallery, 400 Winslow Way East, # 120, Bainbridge Island, WA
Abstract Landscapes: Corinne Carbone’s abstract paintings reveal two conversations, one with a physical landscape dominated by bold shapes and strong colors, the other the inner dialogue of the artist, a mental landscape expressed in layers and textures and a neutral color palette. As an encore, we are introducing enticing spring ensembles from fiber artists Maggy Pavlou, Amy Nguyen, Linda St. Angelo and Diane Prekup.
6:40-6:50 Bergh Images, 400 Winslow Way East, # 115, Bainbridge Island, WA
Fine art photographer Andrew Bergh exhibits his evocative images in eclectic genres, including landscape/nature, urban, and travel, and in different mediums, including metal, acrylic, canvas, and custom-framed B&W prints. Recent images from Spain are currently being highlighted.
7:00 – Solo violin concert by Ranger Sciacca – Live from Ranger’s bedroom on Bainbridge Island – Jazz violin virtuoso Ranger Sciacca, leader of Ranger and the Re-Arrangers, will perform for 15-20 minutes, playing waltzes and other favorites from his repertoire.

Great idea! Can you provide a little more information about how to log into your First Friday? Go to Facebook and seek Jeffery Moose Gallery? Is that enough? Then redo for the other galleries?
This Friday a group I belong to has already planned a Zoom gathering to substitute for First Friday but maybe we can incorporate what you are doing into our evening, if not this time for future First Fridays.
Hi Amy,
At the beginning of each paragraph (where it describes the time/gallery/Ranger), I’ve embedded a direct link to their FB pages, so you just need to click that link at the designated time and it will take you right to them. I love your Zoom idea as well, Jeffrey Moose put this all together (and as I write about the FFAW each month, I was honored to share it with everyone). I hope you enjoy the show!
