PHOTOS: On your marks, get set, glow! Peek inside the fluorescent fun of the Waterloo Arts DayGloSho

Color us thrilled: March marks the seventh annual DayGloSho, featuring the weird and wonderful works of 40 regional and national artists using pigments made by Cleveland-based DayGlo Color Corp. Along with a new annex gallery featuring artwork made by Cleveland amateurs, the DayGloSho will also host violinist Steve Ostrow for the Music for Miles' production of "Fantasia" this Sunday, March 10, at 4 p.m.

The black-lit exhibition debuted last Friday, March 1, and continues through March 30 at Waterloo Arts Gallery. See it through the eyes of our managing photographer Bob Perkoski, who captured this Cleveland tradition in all its neon glory.

About the Author: Bob Perkoski

Bob is managing photographer with FreshWater as well as a Cleveland freelance photographer. His photographic approach is rooted in the art of storytelling.

In addition, Bob is the official photographer for LAND studio and Holden Forest and Gardens and has worked with various Cleveland organizations. In 2019 he published a book of his photos Rust Belt Burlesque. He's had work published in other books like LGBTQ Cleveland by Ken Schneck, Rust Belt Chic: The Cleveland Anthology, Rust Belt Chic: The Pittsburgh Anthology and Moon Cleveland by Douglas Trattner. Previously he was co-founder/art director for Balanced Living Magazine. You can view his versatile portfolio of work, which includes news coverage, portraiture, architectural and fine art at Perkoski Photography.
