Simpsons Fan Alert: Art Opening Tomorrow Night
What's better than spending your Friday night among free donuts and over 85 pieces of art from The Simpsons? Yeah, that's right, nothing.
Starting at 6 p.m. tomorrow night, Every Picture Tells A Story on Montana Ave. will have an art opening showing off and selling 40 original production drawings from The Simpons Movie, over 25 original production cells from TV show and limited edition prints and treatments from film. Many of the prints are 1 of 1 and we're especially excited for the hand signed by Matt Groening treatment from the episode where Homer goes on a Guatamalan insanity pepper acid trip (see YouTube clip after the jump).
If you're a collector, prices start at $350, but anything with Homer in it starts at $450. If you're just a fan who enjoys The Simpsons, then yummmmmmm.... donuts!
