NELAart Second Saturday Gallery Night. Images by
Roland Seto will be featured next. The screen-printing process is live at Outpost HQ, which sets up a unique point of interaction between the artist and their audience.

"T-shirt Revival Night" is a silk-screening event that features a new
artist every second Saturday of the month in conjunction with NELAart
Second Saturday Gallery Night. Each month, a featured artist creates
imagery and silkscreens with which to print on t-shirts (used or new)
that patrons bring to the event. The screen-printing process is live
at Outpost HQ, which sets up a unique point of interaction between the
artist and their audience. Assistance is made available for artists
who are unfamiliar with screen-printing. Patrons pay a small fee for
the prints and all proceeds are split 50/50 between the artist and
Outpost.
After four months of successful t-shirt revivals at Outpost, we're
encouraged to see this event grow and foster excitement in the
community. Our goal is to schedule artists for eight months out,
starting in October. We are particularly interested in finding artists
who see this as an opportunity to develop ideas and concepts that will
explore the many applications and connotations of the t-shirt, the
communal and interactive setting, the performative qualities of the
event, wearable art, wearable billboards, etc.
Interested artists should email Jena Lee, Outpost HQ Program Assistant,
jena@outpost-art.org
All events are free and open to the public at
Outpost HQ, a public space and resource room -- open Wednesday - Saturday, 12-4 pm -- that provides meeting space, wireless access, a library of arts periodicals and books, and a changing assortment of T-shirts, drawings, prints and other works for sale by supporting artists.
