These skates could roll all over your tender li’l heart. Rundle’s soft-sculpture will be showing at TLE throughout September.

Love Always (solo project of Kathy from The Thermals) and Woodwinds (solo project of boppin’ redhead hottie Megan Spear, of Jared Mees & The Grown Children) will provide the live backing tracks for the opening night of Kelly Rundle’s cozy soft-sculpture show at the headquarters of local record label and craft-curio carrier, Tender Loving Empire (412 SW 10th Avenue). Surrender to the benevolent power of Tender Loving Empire. TLE will hug and kiss and never hurt you.
