The LNB mobile unit got out on the town this past Saturday to hit up 52 McCaul’s closing show and party. Among the throngs of supporters, ruby cheeked volunteers and nostalgic artists we were able to catch up with Steve and Lisa from Well and Good (featured guests on Episode 3), who began operating the space following The Manifesto Festival ‘09. Over the course of the last year, Steve and Lisa have worked furiously to promote the interests of young artists and art enthusiasts, encourage discussion and provide an accessible and professional gallery to showcase the talent in this city.

LNB has been lucky enough to work with the gallery on two separate occasions; the first, mentioned above, was for episode three. And more recently we filmed Episode 10 in the main floor space.

Though you might be sad at this closing-of-doors, you should know that Steve and Lisa are getting all pumped up to hit the scene post-gallery. In no way have you seen the last of these guys.

As one attendee of the night’s festivities put it “they have a contagious enthusiasm for people and for collaboration”…
