The Final Days of the Hatchery.

Sad news for the Geriatric Pig Hatchery: the whole property has been purchased (and will be bulldozed) by Grand Valley Catholic Outreach, which means we have 28 days to vacate the premises. We love it here and it's been a difficult reality to face. It's only because of the crazy-low rent on this place that we were able to afford a house with a detached show space in the heart of downtown Grand Junction, without neighbors to bother with the noise. We knew we were lucky while it was happening, and now that it's coming to an end we still feel fortunate to have gotten the time we've had here. And we're exploring other avenues for continuing the regular avante-garde showcase that the Hatchery gave birth to. (If nothing else, maybe...30 Road storage units, anyone? We're welcome back there anytime.) So we'll keep you posted. Thanks for everything everyone has done to make the Geriatric Pig Hatchery the amazing place that it is. And with 28 days left to enjoy it, we're cooking up one last hurrah to take place after the Sama Dams/Vampire Suite show on Thursday, September 5th. Details to follow.
