Do you want to go see Andrew Bird (who wouldn’t after seeing the cute photo taken of him by the Walker’s own Cameron Wittig!)
Well, pony up a funny and original one line joke and submit it. The clock is ticking!!
You have until Wednesday to come up with something that will make our gallery speaker Joseph Scrimshaw laugh. He will announce the winner on Thursday at the last Richard Prince gallery talk that is all about, what else, jokes! The talk starts at 7pm.
You don’t have to be present to win, although I would like to meet some of you who submitted some very witty missives. Also, being there means you will learn all about the history of jokes, what makes a joke funny, and what exactly borscht belt style humor is. Just think Rodney Dangerfield, but Walker style.
First place winner will receive two tickets to Rock the Garden, plus two tickets to Adventures in Mating, Joseph Scrimshaw’s show at the Bryant Lake Bowl (playing until someone makes them stop!). Second place is two free tickets to Walker on the Green: Artist-Designed Mini Golf and a salty dog from the Walker shop. How’s that for Caddyshack!
Good luck!
