Say It Ain't So
An all around nice guy and all around nice gal are saying buh-bye to St. Louis. The arts and culture scene will miss them both.
Randall Roberts, longtime writer for the RFT, contributor to our magazine, and DJ at KDHX (and all over town really), is moving to L.A. at the end of this month. He’ll be DJing at the Contemporary this Thursday, June 7th. This will be one of his last spins in St. Louis so if you get a chance, do stop by. 6-10pm. Free admission.
Tracy Varley, former co-director of Mad Art Gallery has relocated to Chicago. Tracy worked behind the scenes at Mad Art since the beginning. She was the heart of that operation and played a huge part in the success of Stray Rescue’s Mad Arf, the Glass Art Society 2006 Conference in St. Louis, and countless charity and art events, including helping 52nd City out a time or two.
We at 52nd City wish both the best.
I had no idea about Tracy. Damn.

(And yes I'm sad about Randall leaving, too, but this is the first I have heard about Tracey.)
With the loss of Marti Frumhoff and the departure of Joseph Heathcott and Ashley Cruce, man, wow.
