[The] Rev: Speaking of the Revolution, for those of you who don’t know, it’s an amazing little venue in Ashland that has been supporting bands and building community for over ten years now. It has been a growing passion of ours for the past 3 years. We have become involved to the point now of being key members of it’s development into a potential full fledged business. In the future, we have visions that will lead into further developments which will in turn lead into a network of venues with a similar vision. We have been surprised to find out that there are a handful of people who share this vision with us and we are beginning to build relationship with them. In the past six months, we’ve taken this vision a lot more seriously, no longer just talking about it, but actually developing it into something tangible. There will be more information about this adventure as it unfolds, but for now its all “top-secret.”
We just finished up our 3rd annual Ugly Christmas Sweater Show. We featured some local artists, opened up the coffee cart, set up a photo booth, and made a big party out of it. We even made a prize for the person who had the ugliest sweater according to the audience’s vote. As the years have gone by in doing this show, we have discovered that it has the potential to become a “big deal” in our local community. Events like this one have brought the most unlikely people/artists/musicians together and have been knitting our communities together right before our eyes. We both agree that this has been such an honor and a blessing to be a part of and we send out our thanks to everyone else who has played a part in building [the]Rev. Props again to Sasha Timmen for her willingness to trust us with the torch.
