Rania has been well documented in past Artomatic events, but the work for this year stands true to her style and I’m always glad to find it!
2D art reaching into a 3D space… very cool Artomatic find!
This is just the sort of thing that I would love to see more of in our area! Art + function + play. What’s not to love?!

Just in case you need a little bit more inspiration for events/art/adventures in the DC area, this will be right up your alley!

I am in love with Artjamz.
Having watched their projects for some time, slowly traveling across the city to find the best spots for pop-up painting, its fantastic that this group of designers, friends and co-workers have finally found a home at their Dupont location (opened this spring).

….Especially when you’re part of the Smithsonian’s Take 5 nights! If you find yourself longing to do something creative next Thursday, and want to be in the inspiring setting of the American Art Museum, come and stop by the Artjamz popup in the Kogod courtyard. Registration just opened. Just like the past events, there will be live music, teachers on site, and a free-reign on your canvas. Having stopped in to see the class from last night, I can’t wait to see what takes place with the music and inspiration of next week.

(and maybe we’ll get some treats in the bargain!)
Stan Douglas’s work makes me look twice. Staged to depict crowds in years past, his attention to detail is superb. Its wonderful that his is noted in TIME as the Recipient of ICP’s Infinity Award for Art
The Trading Tortoise embodies all the things that I love about trading stories and bartering exhibits- collections, journeys, and an anything may happen jovial attitude. While my own show in three weeks follows a similar structure, I can’t wait to use this platform to create better and more wonderful events!
What was your dream job growing up? To save the world? To dance? What if, no matter what you dreamed of, or dream of now, you could do? Would you take your dream job and help others to do the same?

I think the job I want most, a fantasy job that I wished I could have that would support me financially
would be handing out colorful balloons to...
