There's nothing one needs more than a bit of fun in the depths of a long New England winter hibernation. Craving a creative outlet & the hands-on making of something, I signed up to participate in Fun-A-Day Boston. The program: do something fun and creative every day for the month of January. It can be an activity or an art project, but the fun should be documented in some way!
I learned about the project at last year's gallery opening and was inspired by the variety of activities participants had devised for themselves: an eavesdropped conversation transcribed every day, research and stories and paintings of foxes, and food experiments. My project for this year: small, abstract paper models of a space that I had been in that day, not too precise or precious, just quickly done and based on memory.
Now spring is (finally) here and it's time for the pop-up show. Time to check out all of the fun that was had way back in January! If you're in the Boston area, don't miss the reception this Saturday from 6 - 9 pm at Aviary Gallery in Jamaica Plain.
