As I'm getting this post ready I'm listening to the Erasure station on Pandora and I'll be working til the wee hours of the morning with Jenny on a ridiculous list of things. I was thinking today about those of us that stay up all night, work hard on the weekends and continue to push through the day-to-day with things that inspire us, revive us and sometimes intimidate us.
I know you guys know what we mean because you came out to show us what you do when you have a free moment. And it was beautiful!
Thanks again for showing us what you do! The whole month of September is dedicated to exactly that : working hard and working on personal projects.
We are going to be celebrating tons of amazing projects by amazing people, including our final list of artists for Nights & Weekends!
Featured Artist, Campbell Whyte is coming all the way from Australia to hang out with us and show his epic collection of hundreds of pieces of work! A workshop, an artist talk and some more fancy surprises are in the works, so keep a sharp eye out!
We'll make sure to let you know more as we get closer!
Without further ado:
Nights & Weekends
An Exhibition About the Fever to Create
Opening Friday September 20th
alongside the Sketchbook Project: 1703 Miles and Back Tour

This show features a small, select group of individuals whose artwork inspired us. During the course of the show we'll be delving into the day-to-day creative considerations of each artist and getting to know what drives them to make the things they make. We're looking forward to a series of interviews, podcasts and process blogs, among other practice-related content!
