In Lawrenceville, Art All Night

Pop City: "Consider these 2007 entries: “Breakfast of Champions,” for sale at $150 that uses “ridiculous jewelry, resin, steel and crackling oat bran” as a medium.
Or the oil painting entitled “What Happened to You Steve?”
Or “Cloak” made from acrylic, modeling paste, wooden disk, straw, plaster and dirt. There’s a “Where My Parents Used to Drink” photograph and artwork made of mixed medium called “12 Steps to Flat Abs: The Massacre.”
And there you have a sampling of Lawrenceville's Art All Night, a 24-hour arts marathon that’s as serious about art as it about fun. Organizers say this year’s all-night arts show – which takes place April 26-27 – will be bigger, better and greener than ever."

I think for Carnival next year we should get all of the CFA to do this. It could be a huge, all-night arts festival with performances, concerts, galleries, installations... whatever. I think I'd be a great way to get a lot of people involved in a low-pressure, fun-filled arts event!
