Free First Fridays: T-Shirt Printing & Performance

Create your own personalized silkscreened t-shirt, selecting your favorite combination of text, colors, and designs inspired by film, music, and activism. Then, watch artists make it to order in front of your eyes. This workshop is designed and facilitated by “DRAW: Heat” artists Tomas Vu and Rirkrit Tiravanija.

In the performance “Pictures Come to Life,” storyteller and illustrator Jeff Hopkins will quickly draw, narrate, and act out characters’ actions and voices, working on wall-sized sheets of paper. You’re invited to interact by adding sounds, movements, and your own designs. Follow the playful and humorous adventures of “A Little Line Who Wants to Become a Drawing,” inspired by selected works in “DRAW: Heat.” There will be two performances, at 5:30 and 7pm.

In addition, get creative in a bilingual sketching workshop with Carolina Amarillo, explore our current exhibitions, including “Throwing Shade on Extreme Heat,” where Groundwork Hudson Valley team members will be onsite. Cash bar available.
