The Delaware College of Art and Design hosts the November opening of Animation Now! — a curated exhibition of contemporary animation — on display November 7, 2014 through January 9, 2015 in DCAD’s Toni & Stuart B. Young Gallery.

Five animation studios, art centers, individuals and collectives from across the globe who create content for the web, TV, social media and game development will participate. Featuring techniques including stop-motion animation (Center for Creative Works and Tromarama), cut-out animation (Kelly Gallagher), and digital 2-D animation (Augenblick Studios and Honeycomb Interactive), Animation Now! showcases the scope of contemporary animation, including works that transcend the boundaries between art and entertainment worldwide.

An opening reception, sponsored by Dogfish Head Craft Brewery will be held Friday, November 7, from 5:00-8:00pm in the Toni & Stuart B. Young Gallery at 600 N. Market St., coinciding with Wilmington’s monthly Art Loop event. The exhibition is free and open to the public.

Charles "Ebbie" Alfree, III, blogbrother. Ebbie is ecstatic to be the “little brother” of Delaware Arts Info. He was voted Delaware Arts Info’s sexiest male blogger! When not performing his daily duties of development/marketing for a local non-profits, he’s in a theater somewhere on the East Coast watching a play, musical, concert or visiting a museum. If not there, look for him at the stage door waiting to meet actors. He's a "stage door whore!"
