This afternoon was the “soft opening” of the Rasmuson Gallery on Rhetorica in Second Life. The gallery features work by Alaskan artists who are grantees of the Rasmuson Foundation. [slurl]

Cybergrrl Oh, aka: Aliza Sherman, promoted this event with huge success and grace. I was amazed at the turnout and the interest the event generated. The Rasmuson Foundation released a press release for the event earlier this morning.

The grand opening of the gallery is scheduled for 12 May and will include more artwork and additional information about the artists.
