Are you ready to share your work?!

Friends, the time has come! Gather and proudly show the work you've done for Fun-A-Day! Every day in January, you've created art (or at least thought about it?) and now it's time to shine!

Newcomers Organizing meeting

Dear friends of Fun A Day Providence,

Hard to believe that another year has rolled around and it's time to start thinking, planning and dreaming about what this year's project will be. For us organizers, it's also time to start thinking, planning and dreaming about what this year's show is going to be like. If you think you'd like to come and put your head together with ours, we would 
really LOVE to have you join of team of organizing folks (organizers). We always need people who have ideas, or connections, or know how, people skills, or just good energy to impart. This group started as a rag a tag bunch (sorry guys!) of assorted amazing people and we'd like to continue that tradition by inviting you to pitch in and be one of us.
Sooooo, the first meeting for this year's organizers is this Saturday morning (10/20) at 10:30 am @ the Coffee Exchange on Wickenden St. in Providence
Whoever you are, you are welcome!!!!!!!!
Look for a friendly group of artists. If one of us has time, we will also be bearing a sign saying, yep, you've guessed it, FUN A DAY ORGANIZERS.
Wishes for a peaceful week and to see you Saturday,



Love,
The Fun A Day Team

  •  "Free Hang" means everyone in the show puts up their own work.  
  • Organizers can help you as much or as little as you like.  Some people just drop work off and ask us to display it for them. 
  • The way you show your work is up to you - how and what, part of the project or the whole thing.  

-- bring supplies if you can/if you've got special cool stuff you need. 
  • We'll have some basics: masking tape, thumbtacks, nails and hammers, screwdrivers and white paint.

-- hey...it's a POTLUCK. 

  • Please bring delicious anythings to share, we'll do our part to provide some food & drink.  Think simple snacks, anything goes. 
     
-- Performing? Talk to us. 
  • We'll be setting up folks who want to do live performance on both nights of the show.  Let us know if you're one of those people. 
  • The plan is to do "pop-up" performances..we'll have a set aside space, and whenever you're ready we'll make an announcement! 

Invite friends, bring a camera and check out all the work that's been gettin' made around Providence this January.

If you've got any questions about the Free Hangs, or you can't make it and need to drop work off another time: email Sarah@funadayprov.org

Ready to Share???


January is almost over! Some of us are winding down, others chugging through or even just starting to ramp up. 
Any which way, you should all be proud for the effort towards creativity and fun you made this month!

I know it's been a blast already but some of us would tell you that the best part of Fun A Day is yet to come.

Join us for the Art Show and Party on February 10 & 11th, from 7-11pm to check out everyone's projects, get to know eachother, and have more FUN.
The art show and big party are at WBNA in the West End of Providence (1560 Westminster St), and we hope to see you and all your friends there!

If you want to show your work, make sure to sign up (go to the participate tab on this website) so we can get you the info on days & times to come hang your work. 

Don't be shy. This is not about mastery, it's just about developing a daily practice! Trust us, you will feel proud to see it there with the other projects.
