Covivant - Cross-Pollination

A message from Carrie Mackin of Covivant

Next Month will be Covivant's Sixth Anniversary!
Join us on October 15th for Cross-Pollination to celebrate our success!

The Artillery presents their latest incarnation: Cross~PollinationFeaturing new art by Chad Mize, Phillip Clark, Anna Sauer and Andrew Hawthorne. Cross~Pollination is an exhibition which explores each artists personal creative method of sharing knowledge through images of nature - reminding us of its complicated beauty and poignant significance to our surrounding space. In these works, as in nature, sharing expedites growth. The convergence of ideas accelerates evolution, manifesting itself in new ways of thought and perspective, either individually or collaboratively.

The Artillery is a creative collective based in St. Petersburg, Florida. They are a diverse group of artists united through a common goal, to inspire the community and establish a climate of positive change. By creating various public events, they express their vision of art and society.


I would like to thank everyone for supporting the gallery over the years through thick and thin. Weve seen so much starting with our first October opening The Devil Made Me Do It in 1999. The many improvements are so obvious since that first opening. No air conditioning and then air conditioning (ummm... kind of); from the bare dirty walled courtyard to the Luxemburg Jarden; extension cords everywhere, and FINALLY track lighting! Say goodbye to the clamp lights forever thanks to our last 100 Smacks or Less fundraiser. All of this made possible by those of you who attend receptions on a regular basis, and those of you who continue to collect works by some of Tampas best artists. Thank you.
