MOVE IT: kinetic art making nights in Ithaca, NY

I'm now a bi-state puppeteer. This October I moved the half of my studio that had been at the Ithaca Zen Center into a new artist community called Artist Alley.

To launch our first twice-monthly Open Studio nights, I'm hosting a cardboard automata making party. Automata are art machines, art moved by mechanisms. Not unlike puppets. Drop in any time between 5-8pm this Thursday, February 21 and try making a simple cam-driven automaton. All materials provided, open to adults, and kids accompanied by an adult. Free. No artistic or mechanical mastery necessary.

Until then, if you haven't seen The Stringpullers website lately, find it at www.stringpullers.com.
