What will you do this summer?

Upcoming November 2009 Telephone Room exhibiting artist Kristen Ramirez was selected by the City of Seattle Office of Arts and Cultural Affairs to be the artist in residence in Seattle's Fremont Bridge tower.
While some of us will be draped across kiddie pools in the throes of Otter Pop induced brain freeze, Ramirez will be creating a public art project inspired by the venerable drawbridge. Find out more in this article and this episode of Art Zone from the Seattle Channel.
Here at the Telephone Room Gallery, we'll be using our trusty namesake rotary dial to leave our Fremont Bridge thoughts and memories for Kristen's consideration at 206-455-9983.

UPDATE: Kristen's blog about the residency can be found here, or bend an ear to her feature on NPR's All Things Considered!
