art exhibit going national

The Redd Barna art exhibit we spent 11 hours setting up last Friday is going to be featured in a segment on Frokost TV (think Good Morning America, just Norwegian) this Friday. That's pretty exciting. We had the opening yesterday - a very low-key affair involving two fifth grade classes singing a song about tolerance and respect, lots of Redd Barna flag-waving, and a speech by the mayor that was drowned out by a big garbage truck.

So far, nobody has gone to the bathroom, thrown up, or fallen asleep on the exhibit (which is precariously perched next to taxi line (aka: lots of drunk people on Friday and Saturday night)) but I'm preparing myself for the worst and hoping for the best. Such is life!
