GALLERY EXHIBIT OPENING FOR TRAVEL & ADVENTURE PHOTOGRAPHY CONTEST, FEATURING WOLFIE STARFIRE

 

Travel & Adventure recently held a photography contest in which we asked photographers to think about what the words "travel and adventure" mean to them personally and to submit photographs taken on the SL grid that express that idea.  The result is a collection of amazing photographs that are about to go on exhibit in a gallery at the Center for the Arts.  If you love photography or art, you will enjoy seeing this wonderful collection of interesting photographs.  See how different individuals interpreted and brought the words "travel and adventure" to life through the magic of SL photography.  The photos will be competing for thousands of L$ in prizes, including a L$ 5,000 first prize.  You will have the opportunity to share your opinion and vote for your favorite!

The exhibit will open to the public on Thursday, December 11, 2025 at 5:00 p.m. SLT.  The opening festivities will begin with DJ Delo Ocean spinning some tunes as attendees peruse the photographs displayed in the gallery.  Originating from the West Coast, DJ Delo's passion for music is evident in every set she delivers.  With a voice silkier than the famed American radio host, Delilah, Delo brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to her musical choices.  Delo will be playing your requests and favorite songs as you explore the captivating exhibits.

Then at 6:00 p.m. SLT, the event will be presided over by none other than Wolfie Starfire, perhaps the most acclaimed live singer in Second Life.  This award winning songstress will charm the hearts of all with her sweet and unique nightingale vocals cultivated over many years of performance experience. Wolfie is considered to be a "must hear performer!" You, too, will understand why Wolfie continues to be a favorite among so many live music aficionados in SL. 

Come enjoy a fun evening of fascinating photography and mesmerizing music!  Peruse this innovative gallery exhibition as you listen to the sounds of DJ Delo and the unparallelled vocal talent of Wolfie Starfire.  Come by yourself or bring your friends! Bring a date if you would like.  Can you think of a more interesting event to attend in Second Life to impress that special someone than the Travel & Adventure Picture Show?

SPOTLIGHT FEATURE - All Out Music - Mack Abbot Reporting

Clubs are ten a penny in SL, so when a special one comes along, it's nice to find out a bit more about it.  I spoke to Evan-Leigh Angelis, GM of All Out Music, to find out a bit more about the club and its offerings.

Mack:  So you recently rebranded from All Out 80's to All Out Music, what was the logic behind that?

Evan:   We rebranded to All Out Music towards the end of October. The aim was to bring a wider variety of entertainment to our guests. Phil Setner (Club Owner) sings live at the club regularly and he felt that limiting himself to 80's only could become repetitive over time..he doesn't sing absolutely every 80's tune as you can imagine! This contributed to the decision.

Mack:  So what genres of music do you have in the club?

Evan-Leigh:   Genres played at All Out Music are as follows: Pop, Rock, R&B, Blues, Country, Electronic, EDM, Dance, Trance, Indie, K-Pop. We remain open to other genres that fit our clean, radio friendly, and crowd-pleasing criteria.   We focus on radio friendly music spanning every decade from the 1950s right up to today’s Top 40 charts.

Mack:  So basically stuff you can play to Grandma?

Evan-Leigh:  Yeah

Mack:  As a PG Club, do you have an open door policy?

Evan-Leigh: We welcome EVERYONE to enjoy the club, Kids, LGBTQIA+ Community, New Players, Furries, Dinkies, etc. We are a Family Friendly PG Club on a moderate sim.  We also have events that re open to anyone.

Mack:  Do you find that being PG works in a club situation?

Evan-Leigh:   Whilst we're not unique in being a PG venue, it would seem many aren't comfortable with having child avi's and dinkies in a club setting. This is something Phil & Alessia, the club owners wanted to address as they felt there was a gap in family friendly venues where they could safely take their own family.

Mack:  And is the family friendly element the unique selling point of the club?

Evan-Leigh:  We don't insist on human or adults in the club as long as people are covered and behave themselves.  The dinkies and children we get are very well behaved.  They're there to have fun like everyone else.  We want the club to be a place where people feel comfortable and have fun. A place where they can enjoy music and friendly, inoffensive chat (actual chat, NOT just spammed gestures) We want to be “kid friendly” while still being able to entertain adults. Vulgarity just isn’t something that belongs in the environment.

Mack:  What else does the sim have to offer?

Evan-Leigh:  We have stores, as well as Mushroom Mania and Candy Mania for those that like to earn lindens.  We do decorate for holidays so we're in a winter theme at the moment, with an ice rink for people who want to ice skate.  We will be moving our sets outside in the next week, through December.

Mack:  And what are your opening hours?

Evan-Leigh:  Wednesday to Sunday 12-6pm with a wide range of djs and music to enjoy.  Also look out in our group for details of live singers that perform at the club.  Also we have themed sets every now and then so theres always something happening.

Mack:  Well it's been a pleasure to talk to you and I wish you continued success in the club and all its ventures.

Evan-Leigh:  Thank you its been a pleasure also
