Earlier in the year I was approached by my friends at Scenario Entertainment to partner up on an event they had created, called Dance Your Art Out. As creating a live event of some type is something I had been thinking about doing via Radical Notion, I was happy to accept.
So I’m thrilled to announce that we’ve been working hard the last few months to organize the next Dance Your Art Out event, which is happening Saturday, August 6th in conjunction with the August Art Crawl.
To kick things off, we’ve put together this promo video with the details:
Dance Your Art Out:
What: a free art show and dance party
Where: Ha Factory 238 5th Ave N. Nashville, TN 37219 (just two doors down from The Arcade)
When: Saturday, August 6th 8pm (in conjunction with the August art crawl)
What else: DJ Kidsmeal will be playing, and the artwork of Twist Gallery will be featured. This party is totally free, with free beer provided by Star Hill Brewery.
The incredible motion sequence for the video above is a piece by visual artist Ryan Hogan. Ryan has been a featured Dance Your Art Out artist in the past, and kindly let us use his creation in this video. Thanks Ryan!
Two posts within 24hrs is a pretty good way to break the RSS silence on our blog, I suppose. Wanted to put out a quick little news bulletin about something Radical Notion is getting involved in. My friends at Scenario Entertainment asked us to help out with a dance party coming up this week-tomorrow, in fact.
Dance Your ‘Art Out: Art Show and Dace Party
Dance Your ‘Art Out is the first in what’s planned to ultimately become a monthly party featuring DJs, bands, and visual art. This month’s party features unique installation art and live painting brought to you by Twist Art Gallery, including the self illuminated series “Suspension” created by Jaime Raybin and Ryan Hogan.
Here’s what The Nashville Scene is saying about it:
“…instrumental hip-hop from Get-Got and sets from DJs Orig and Potamus are bound to make even the most introverted art wallflower break a sweat. Think of it as a social experiment to discover what happens when art nerds rock out. It’s a great idea: There’s tons of overlap between the dance crowd and the art world, and those stragglers who’ve been waiting in the outer rings of the art/dance Venn Diagram have a great excuse to mingle.” [Read the full article -->]
