ART AT SUMMER FEST!
ART GRANTS HAVE BEEN AWARDED - HERE'S YOUR SNEAK PEEK



Art Grants have been awarded!!! Though all the information is still being processed here’s a special sneak peek! This year Josephine the Colossal Skeletal Marionette will be joining us at PEX Summer Festival! Josephine amplifies some of the strangest structural and skeletal details to epic proportions for our amusement. At her most abstract, she is a way of playfully engaging the macabre. The ease with which participants can manipulate the colossal puppet leaves an indelible, energetic impression on those who choose to interact. Either individually or as a group, the energy of you mortals pulling on the ends of her ropes is multiplied many times over as cables, pullies and bones animate and flail and dance in wild directions.
