YOU ARE NOT "ACTUALLY" READING THIS BUT...

On this Tuesday I made another attempt to get Pascarelli Gallery.net listed along with other galleries in the Boston Globe Calendar insert. Here is what the Calendar listing staff person Stephanie Callahan had to say about that.

"We don't list anything that's Internet only in the Globe Calendar. All the galleries are actual galleries or gallery specials or exhibits that are happening at a specific place. we just don't have the space to get into that kind of listing. But you can check with the Boston.com people and see if they have any guidelines for that. Maybe they can get something in there for you on line."

Well, I don't get it. We have 37 artists displaying work, a Blog page, a cultural events calendar, a gallery listing, we even have a "specific" address. OK, we don't have plaster walls, and the hardwood floor is just pixels, but lady, we are "actual". Oh, well the Media Giants have their way again. "We just don't have the space"...That's BS. I'll keep trying.
