Posted @withregram • @hfaeast This weeks amazing residents!!

The Project is called The Blues. P.U.G.G teens will be gathering flora and garbage along the waterfront and making cyanotype flags out of what they gather. Their goal is to cover the entire surface with these flags, talk about art and environmental issues.
They will be there 3-7 during the week, 1-4 on the weekend.
Love this project.!!

The BLUES: CYANOTYPE PROJECT : A PUGG Project
Presented by Dept. of Regional Art Workers (The D.R.A.W.)

Pop Up Gallery Workers (PUGG) will explore the cross section between Nature and the Man, Made along the Rondout Creek. PUGG workers, with the help of our community, will be creating cyanotypes inspired by the work of Anna Atkins. We’ll be exploring the Botanicals of our waterfront juxtaposed with the man made.

Come by and create your own Cyanotype and explore the Rondout Creek waterfront. See days and hours in the comments.

Located next to ArtPort on the Rondout Creek. #kingstonny #thedraw #pugg #artmaking #rhinebeckny #woodstockny #rondout #madkingston #cyanotype #habitatforartists

@askforarts 🌟 SUBMISSIONS OPEN FOR THE 2021 KINGSTON ANNUAL ⁠

The Arts Society of Kingston and Midtown Arts District Kingston are collaborating on the 2nd Kingston Annual! A premier exhibition of artists from throughout the Mid-Hudson region, the Kingston Annual debuted in 2020 with 26 artists selected by our juror from the over 180 that submitted work. The month-long exhibition at ASK was very well attended (particularly when considering COVD restrictions) and several works were sold to local and visiting buyers.⁠
⁠
Kingston Annual 2021 promises to be even bigger with three jurors, more prizes, an improved social media presence, and a year’s worth of buzz!⁠

Submissions due July 12, 2021⁠
