30, 2009 from 5-8pm

New Urban Arts presents “Mid Year Makings: An Exhibition of Works in

Progress,” an art exhibition featuring work by

high school students that celebrates imagination, curiosity and

collaboration. See a print installation of raindrops,

pinhole photographs of our city, and Bones, a skeleton that evolved from a

hand-drawn illustration to a sweatshirt jacket.

Don’t miss the gallery opening event on Friday January 30, 2009 from 5-8pm.

This event is free and open to the public

and will include many opportunities for you to join us in creative practice.

Participate in our Idea Exchange…take an idea

and leave an idea. Also, see and participate in the final showing of artist

mentor Ben Fino-Radin’s kinesthetic window

installation Earth Tones.

But Wait. That’s Not All…

In response to this historic inauguration, hear Random Acts of Sound blasted

through the gallery with voices from our

studio describing what ³change² means to them.

Also, listen to the sounds of DJ Masta J as you enjoy our winter love of ice

cream floats… not just any floats, we’re talking

coke, root beer, strawberry, orange with chocolate and vanilla ice cream.

Choose your flavor and make your own

delightful treat.

This multidisciplinary art exhibition is on view in our gallery from January

30-February 13, weekdays 10am-7pm, at 743

Westminster Street.
