La escuelita ya comenzó! The Art School Without Walls is (Un)Officially Open.

Ray Smith Studio Presents!

The Art School Without Walls Vol. 1:

A Mural Workshop with Sofia Maldonado.

Acclaimed muralist Sofia Maldonado is leading the cre8tive YouTH*ink team of teen artists from Los Galeristas Adolescentes to design and produce the new and original large-scale mural pictured below.

Please help us to fund this project through Kickstarter. You too, can be a patron of the arts – even for a just a buck! The amount isn’t as important as you taking the time to do it.

Over funding of this project will  increase the stipend that Los Galeristas Adolescentes receive for their participation in the production of this enduring work of art, so remember to fund this project generously!

New Work By Teens From “Doing Art Together”

Here’s a sneak preview of Doing Art Together’s exhibition of new work produced by the teens of the Barbara Blum Residence, a group home for adolescent boys who are involved with the juvenile justice system.

The entire exhibition will be on display during the Atlantic Ave Artwalk at the Ray Smith Studio on June 4th, 2011.
