SUMMER CAMPS!
Posted: June 3rd, 2010 | Author: Adam | Filed under: Creativity, Weeeeeeee!, Workshops | Comments Off
Ready yourselves; we’ve recruited a talented team of volunteers and this summer we’re offering four creative intensives for students entering grades 9-13 (recent high school seniors are invited). Every camp runs Tuesday to Friday from 9:00am – 3:00pm and includes the following:
- Lunch
- Over 20 hours of interaction with a professional
- A field trip or two
- Small student to teacher ratio
- A “ridiculously awesome” t-shirt.
These camps will be challenging, super fun and eye opening. They’ll also be rediculously affordable (we’re on a mission to build creative confidence is as many high school students as possible). For more information head to 2010 Summer Camps.
2010 Tulip Time Photo Hunt
Posted: May 4th, 2010 | Author: Adam | Filed under: Weeeeeeee! | 4 Comments »
Fried food, human sweat and blooming flowers. Ahh, yes. Tulip Time. The annual festival in which millions of guests spend cash at transient stands peddling deep fried food and petty carnival rides all in the name of Dutch heritage. Beautiful.
In 2008 Kris assembled a photo scavenger hunt capturing this quintessential Tulip Time experience and this Thursday we’re exploring it via a photo scavenger hunt. Bring sunscreen, a digital camera and meet us at the HAAC at 1:30. We’ll watch the parade, snap some pics and wrap up at the HAAC at 5:00.
Catch the official list after the jump.
Mending for the People
Posted: February 18th, 2010 | Author: Adam | Filed under: Lifestyle, Weeeeeeee! | 5 Comments »GET INSPIRED! We’ve been doing a lot of sewing after school lately and this guy’s attitude takes the simple act to a whole new level. Michael Swaine is a ceramics arts instructor based in San Francisco and a lifelong mender. Once a month he travels to “The Tenderloin” (San Francisco’s neediest neighborhood) where he offers all-day free mending, friendship, and conversation. His mending is not only about the clothes – it’s about the community, the people in it, and his own needs to find comfort in a world that is so used to throwing things away. Beautiful. The more I read about this guy the more I love. Video by Studio Galli.
Open Studio This Thursday!
Posted: November 18th, 2009 | Author: Adam | Filed under: Weeeeeeee! | Comments OffAmigos - This Thursday we’re hosting a creative jam at the Arts Council from 3:30 – 6:00. Breathe new life into those old projects gathering dust in your room or stuff you’ve been assigned to make for school. If you’re gonna sew; bring your machine. If you’re gonna paint; bring your tools. If you’re gonna weld; eh, leave your stuff at home. (Maybe next time?) Also, bring a playlist containing five (yes, only five) of your favorite tracks. Also, there will be cupcakes. Also, that is all.
