Our summer intern Annalise Prodor is practicing her collage skills and getting excited for Draw. We’ve been running a 12-hour drawing party for a few years now, but this year it’s going city-wide with events in the afternoon at SNAP and Harcourt House where you can take part in printmaking and life-drawing sessions. In the evening the party comes home to Latitude 53 and we’ll have all of the classic components: collage materials, empty walls to hang your work, a FAVA scratch-animation workshop, CJSR DJs as well as snacks and a bar. Get the complete details over at our website.
