Re:Form School Exhibit Saturday-Monday

I am re-posting this from the 3rd Ward event listing. This event/exhibition definitely looks like something not to be missed, featuring works by Michael Gondry and the like!

This Saturday & Sunday : RE:FORM SCHOOL

RE:FORM SCHOOL is a high profile group art exhibition, event series and
public awareness campaign taking place in New York City, that brings
together the creative community in a call for the reform of the American
Public Education System.

We believe that it is the right of each and every child in the United
States to have access to a high quality education.

We've taken over four floors of an old Elementary school on the corner of
Prince and Mott in Nolita. Within this incredible structure we are
building a labyrinth of participatory art, music and installations
featuring the works of: Swoon, Shepard Fairey, Michel Gondry, The Wooster
Collective, and more.

October 9th – October 11th : 10:00 am – 6:00 pm : $Free (donate if you can)

233 Mott Street (between Houston & Prince) Manhattan

The Last Supper - Celebration of Food and Art

I am on the tail-end of my vacation in D.F., Mexico City, but still keeping my eye on events in NYC...

This event is appropriate to my travels here and my personal and academic interest in cultural geography, urban community and social theory!
