Happy New Year

A Pop-Up Collaborative Exhibit Produced by Sheila Cowley and Paula Kramer

The Studio@620 welcomes a new collaborative effort written by frequent partner Sheila Cowley called “Happy New Year”. You may recall Sheila was the force behind the recent “Tiny Bedtime Plays” presented over the phone during the pandemic in May 2020 and her plays “Trio’ and ‘Flying’ staged at The Studio@620 in 2017.

Now Cowley bids us a “Happy New Year” via a short collaborative film created by a group of artists working together on Zoom and alone, searching for hope and new ways to connect. You can view the film here.

This presentation includes an exhibit of work from the three visual artists in the film – Carrie Jadus, Ana Maria Vasquez and Tony Wong Palms.

The film will debut during the Second Saturday Artwalk and will be available for viewing online as well. The exhibit will be available to view by advanced reservations.
