The Elizabeth Foundation for the Arts

ASSEMBLY LINE

Have you ever fantasized about how far you could take a project, if only you had a team of engaged and competent artists to lend a hand for a few hours? EFA Project Space announces Assembly Line, a bi-weekly workshop that matches artists with a group of willing production assistants.

The tradeoff? Each artist whose project is selected for a workshop will be required to participate as assistants on two additional evenings. Those interested in helping are not required to apply with a project—the only requirement is enthusiasm, and the desire to create.

Projects are selected based on how clearly they would benefit from group assistance in addition to being an enriching endeavor for the group of peer helpers. Assembly Line projects are essentially something we can all easily sink our teeth into, learn from, and get excited about.

In addition to the benefits of increased productivity, participating artists gain exposure to diverse practices and an expanding and changing group of peers. -more-

Come participate in the July sessions of Assembly Line!

July 13, 2010

Wednesday July 14th, 6:30 pm:

Join our temporary team of artist's helpers as we assist an artist on a project designed especially for this session. Based on a technique that they have been implementing for 25 years, we will be using unique interpretations of language to chart and create a series of abstract communicative forms.

Wednesday July 28th, 6:30 pm:

For this workshop we will be utilizing a craft technique often overlooked in favor of mass production. We will assist an artist with her exploration of how the culture and identity of a place is expressed through souvenirs and kitsch, as well helping to produce a significant portion of this ambitious body of work. We might be getting a little messy at this one!

Space for these sessions is limited: Please RSVP by emailing: sally@efanyc.org
