at the former Tower Record Store

4th street and Broadway
January 15- February 13, 2010

Press Release available here

On January 15, 2010, No Longer Empty  (NLE) will re-open the legendary Tower Records store on Broadway and 4th street with a trans-media art exhibition: Never Can Say Goodbye
    
Spotlighting more than twenty artists working with sound, light, image and installation, Never Can Say Goodbye recreates a fantasy version of the now defunct Tower Records with Never Records complete with record bins, album covers, cash registers, music posters and a performance stage.
