If you missed out on last night's fabulous opening party for Andy Warhol Portfolios: Life and Legends at the Tucson Museum of Art, you still have a few months to get over there to see the show itself—and you really should. TMA deserves buckets of praise for bringing a show like this to Tucson. That joint was jumping!
And if you missed after-party at the Rialto Theatre, you missed one weird festivus. Congrats to Pauhaus Productions for packing the house for a dance party unlike any we've ever seen in this town. Get to the next one at the end of March.
BTW: The Warhol fun isn't over. Tonight at Firestone Gallery's new home on Sixth Avenue, there's a big party for the opening of Warhol: Dylan to Duchamp. We hear you can look forward to great music, go-go dancers and a mechanical bull. Really! Details here.

Our friends at Maxed Art are celebrating the six-month anniversary of an international project they began called 27. The idea is that on the 27th of each month, photographers take pictures based on a different theme, from transportation to portraits, using only lo-fi cameras—disposable, cell phone, web cams, scanners, toy cameras, vintage cameras, etc. You can see the different photos they received from all over the world here.
The show is Saturday, Feb. 27, from 12 to 5 p.m. at the Candelabra Gallery,412 E. Seventh St., with music, refreshments and an interactive photographic experiment:
27 is an international group art project occurring on the 27th of every month. The project began in September 2009 as a collaborative photography experiment among mixed/multi-media artists and friends originally based in Tucson who, over the course of a few short months, found themselves living in different cities and missing the connection once accessible when it was easy to meet in person to share and talk about art.Each month, we pick a different theme simple enough to shoot on
