Birthdays are a big deal at the Art Garage. We like to make the birthday girl or boy in charge of running the show that day. We like to give presents and celebrate with lots of joy. Birthdays are a way of celebrating the individual. Art, being about self-expression, is all about the individual finding his or her voice. So birthdays get the thumbs up from us.
We have two Halloween babies at the Art Garage (really Oct 28th!). So we will be painting pumpkins and then setting them up at the new Community Houses. It is exciting since the closing on the two houses is the 28th itself. Wow, what a month! Purchasing the new Community Houses means a new chapter for the Art Garage activities. These two new spaces will create a year-round youth apprenticeship program among other exciting contributions to the neighborhood. So instead of hosting our traditional closing Art Garage activity in the Garage, we decided to combine the two events. The Haunted Art Garage will now become a Haunted Community House and Painting Party. What an amazing start of our new endeavor!
