This last weekend I visited a show at September Gallery, run by Kristen Dodge in Hudson, NY. The show titled Sit-In, was a conglomeration of eighteen women’s sculptures that were either a chair, explored themes based on chairs or incorporated a chair as material. Some “could” technically be used to sit in, while others simply…
I am so thrilled to swing open the doors in Millburn, NJ today! Led by our super fantastic Director Erin Champion, Millburn is our 6th location and our 3rd in New Jersey. Located in Essex County, right on the border between Morris and Union Counties, we are so excited to bring our transformative experience to…
