Happy-Accidents

This Saturday @ the Fridge 5-9 PM A very special show.

Saturday, February 25, 5-9pm @the_fridge_dc

In the last few years, I met an artist that everyday astounds me with her strength and humanity. She LOVES her students and is a huge champion of seeing them through to success. I’m talking about DECOY, of course, Alicia Cosnahan. 

Come help me and the rest of the community celebrate and support this art program at the Perry Center at the Fridge this Saturday. There will be pieces for sale and you can always make a contribution.

See you Saturday.

C: SPRING SEMESTER OF WORKSHOPS STARTS ON SUNDAY


We are kicking off the Spring semester of Albus Cavus workshops this Sunday with Contemporary Dance workshops with Kelly Mayfield. The complete schedule of all workshops is here.

Dance: Verb. To use the BODY with EFFORT to make SHAPES in SPACE relative to TIME.

Popularized on TV, students learn the technique behind the buzz of Contemporary Dance. Class focuses on each individual pushing past their limitations, and reaching their maximum movement potential. Whether you are an experienced dancer or new to class, you’ll be moving with purpose and joy, while discovering your personal style. Class includes: a group warm-up to build strength, flexibility, stamina, balance, and healthy movement habits; across the floor movements to help students memorize sequences and connect the movements, and a center combination to pull it all together. We’ll explore elements of improvisation, leaps, turns, musicality, and space.

On Sunday, January 16 from 2pm to 4pm in The Fridge with Kelly Mayfield of Contradiction Dance. Suggested fee is $20. Wear comfortable dance shoes and clothes.

**Please send an email if you know anyone looking for photo classes or a photo internship to RosinaPhoto@gmail.com **

The Fridge

The Fridge,  7/9/10

This is a moment of silence for Yas Bones.  I wish I was featuring him and telling you to go get tattooed by him.  I met Yas as he was featured in Decoy Ink at the Fridge as Decoy’s in house tattoo artist.  He painted these lovely roses that are still on the outside of the Fridge (516 Rear 8th ST SE).  I was going to go and reshoot the piece, but then I noticed Decoy’s angel might be pulling Yas off to heaven… ;)

We miss and love you, Yas!  So young and so talented, gone too soon.

Wednesday, September 1 at The Fridge DC, 7pm to 11pm, located in the rear alley of 516 8th St SE (across from Matchbox, Capitol Hill)

• Live painting: each live painting will be inspired by and painted using a flavor of Vitamin Water of the artist’s choosing
• Complimentary Vitamin Water
• Complimentary Cocktails courtesy of Bacardi 
•  Community Wall: attendees to express themselves through paint
• DJ 2-Tone Jones: hip-hop, soul, rare grooves
• 21+ only

Concept

The synergies and analogies of symbolism between the soul of an artist and the medium they use are limitless but none best exemplifies that relationship better than paint from an artist’s brush to their canvas, It’s a fluid relationship, both literally and figuratively, where the paint is a conduit for the artist to express their thoughts, feelings, and spirit.

AM Radio artists, through the creation of live art murals, will present this symbolism by intergrating an actual beverage into their paints. Each artist will select a flavor of Vitamin Water around which to both build a concept for their piece as well as mix into their paints which will allow for a truly authentic experience.
