Finally getting a chance to catch my breath from Friday’s Summer Slashers event, and I wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU! ❤️
First and foremost, THANK YOU to our guests! You took time out of your lives and chose to spend your Friday night with us, and we are always so incredibly grateful for that. More than 600 horror fans and art supporters came through and made the night absolutely unforgettable!
THANK YOU to our amazing community of artists! Your work was next level, and I cannot tell you how awesome it was to hear that from guest after guest after guest — especially from so many people experiencing an Insomnia Gallery event for the first time. Your talent continues to blow us away, and we’re so lucky to have you as part of this community.
THANK YOU to everyone who came in costume! There were SO many incredible costumes, and it was obvious how much time, creativity, and hard work went into them. Congratulations to our winners:
🥇 Scythe
🥈 DavidThe Smiley
🥉 ‼️🫒 Thyfore Arts 🫒‼️ 🔜 PUNK ROCK GARAGE SALE
I truly cannot tell you how much I appreciate the effort you all put into making the night even more special.
THANK YOU to our host, Bad Astronaut , for working so hard behind the scenes before, during, and after every event to help bring our ideas to life and make each experience memorable.
THANK YOU to all of our vendors for creating such an awesome vibe in the taproom despite that August heat! You helped make the space feel incredible.
And finally, THANK YOU to Cheyenne, Austin, Bucky, Jonathan, Sean, and JimmiJames for all of your help in pulling this event together. We absolutely could not do it without you!
Friday was a hell of a night, and we’re already looking forward to doing it all again next year. 🖤
In the meantime, we’re gearing up for the Kawaii Showcase on September 11th, and we hope to see many of you back out for that one!
Cheers,
Chris
