Somerville Open Studios is next weekend, and our studios are open, open, open!



In a grand act of alliteration, we're going to be doing final take-apart of the Streetbeest (www.streetbeest.org) during Somerville Open Studios and making -- stilts! Dozens of them! We have more wood than we know what to do with. Our goal is to give every kid in Somerville a pair of stilts and have a swarm of stiltwalkers for the next honk parade!

In addition to that, a very special repeat workshop with Terry Murray the Inventor Mentor -- stained glass contraptions! It was a blast back in September, so we're doing it again! Plus some mad drumming with Clay Ward (whom some of you know from maskmaking). Come by and make something awesome!

Workshops are free, but registration is required so we can get a ballpark on materials. Details below!

What: Stilts and Stained Glass at Somerville Open Studios!
Where: Parts and Crafts! 155 Powder House Blvd at the Clarendon Hill Presbyterian Church
When: Saturday, April 30, from 12-3
Cost: Free! ($5 suggested donation for materials)
Registration: http://www.eventbrite.com/event/1609489025

I love your picture, but please put it behind an lj-cut (or put a small one before the cut and a big one after it). Thanks.

Also, if you put http:// before www.streetbeest.org , LJ will automatically turn it into a live link.

As someone who has enjoyed Honk on stilts (http://www.flickr.com/photos/azyxa/4000433922/) in the past, I support this plan.

Sadly I live in Pittsburgh now and will not likely make it to Honk this year.

Honk has been branching out lately, to Providence and Austin and Seattle. Any chance for Pittsburgh?
