WILD PINK is a group show about the natural and cultural relationship of the ancient color PINK. There is certainly no dearth of pink in the natural world or in human culture. We accessorize, cosmeticize, gender-ize and interiorize to the point of being ‘tickled pink’. In the animal and floral world pink as hue and shade exists multifold. Whether to shock, protest or code the millennials, pink has survived the test of time. This show examines the fluid origins of PINK in ‘natural’ and/or ‘cultural’ contexts. This is open media, interdisciplinary, multimedia, installation, all contemporary crafts and design arts in two/three dimensions for the wall and floor.
Reception & Artist talks: Sept. 26th, 5-7pm

Join Wild Woogs on Oct 18th, from 3:30-5:30pm, for a creative afternoon of gettin’ Woogy!
In this two hour workshop Natalie from Wild Woogs will be guiding kids to create their own Woog, made from socks, stuffing, felt, buttons, needles, thread, yarn , etc.! They will brainstorm together “Woog characteristics” (spikes? teeth? and more).
Kids will be introduced to light hand sewing techniques and creative ways to reuse old materials such as socks, fabric scraps etc. They will be encouraged to let their imaginations run wild!
This “woogshop” is recommended for kids 6 yrs and older. Kids need to be able to hold and cut with scissors on their own. (Parents are welcome to accompany their child if they think they will need help with that skill.)
