CANCELED // Matchbox Art
It only takes a few inches of paper to conjure entire worlds: a shrine, a memory, a gift for a sweetheart, a travel memento, a home for a poem, a mini collection of mini images… the possibilities are endless!
If you are the kind of person who hates to waste anything, this project is for you! We’ll use the simple and humble matchbox & discarded magazines to get creative and come up with ideas that are ‘outside-the-box’.
Registration is required. Appropriate for adults, teens and children 8+

CANCELED // “Style Wars” Movie Screening
Join us as we continue our Graffiti Series with “Style Wars”, a documentary film that premiered in 1983, when the world received its first full immersion in the phenomenon that had taken over New York City. The urban landscape was physically transformed by graffiti artists who invented a new visual language to express both their individuality, and the voice of their community.
In STYLE WARS, New York’s ramshackle subway system is their public playground, battleground, and spectacular artistic canvas. As MC’s, DJ’s and B-boys rock the city with new sounds and new moves, we see street corner breakdance battles turn into performance art.
Winner of Best Documentary at Sundance Film Festival.
