With 10 floors and over 1000 artists, you’ll be sure to find something or someone you love. Be prepared to ask questions, and do a lot of walking! There are 10 floors to cover, and the easiest way to get around is via the stairways, so wear comfy shoes. Oh, and ride the metro to get there. With the money you save on gas, you can buy some art.
So come out and meet the artists at Artomatic: tomorrow, Friday, May 16th, 7-10pm. Need more details? Visit this link.
Rania Hassan once coated herself in baby oil and rolled in cheeto dust. Imagine if she’d lost the bet! See the results at goshdarnknit.com.

Save a little bit of that money for the cash bars located on the 1st and 11th floors, with roving bar carts on the other floors. This isn’t really a but of promotion for our bars, though, it’s my way of reminding artists and visitors that due to those pesky laws about liquor licensing, artists can NOT bring in their own wine, beer or spirits to serve to the guests in their spaces. (Spread the word if you know artists who’ve someone missed the emails, signs, and other reminders
Great post, I’m looking forward to visiting all the Crafty Bastards tomorrow.

I’m on the 8th floor (8 is great).
Just look for the blacklight reactive display!
Hope to see you at Artist’s Night!
