special suggestion:

when you see amazing works, get them as they are present,

not everyone will be there every week.

We live in the now. We celebrate NOW.

The crowd source fundraiser for keeping this market at a weekly level is 

"Keep Creative Grove spinning" on Indiegogo

http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/keep-creative-grove-spinning/x/4720216

get your perks folks!, we have lots of fun and original items helping you to release Dollars

towards your neighborhood character maker: Creative Grove

We do need to inform the community that if we do not see the support needed,

changes to this creative original institution in Jersey City will apply. 

Creative Grove art scene update Nov 8

Nov 8  2013  at Creative Grove

a mysterious Dj will offer surprise tunes,

The participatory art project this week is a wheatpaste paper sculpture,

building up layers of paper and fabrics on a cardboard manniquin.

The results are always different from anything anyone can visualize due to the multitude of

participants.

The technique of how to apply wheatpaste with layers of paper 

allows the thought process of building up layer by layer to sink in,

develop interesting projects and / or masks and costumes.

Artists participating this friday: 

Pablo Naranjo

Urban art, graffiti style taken to a new level, and on useful objects as pillows or bags

Sarah Emily art

Steven Mitchell

Uta Brauser

For our Indiegogo fundraiser campaign

we will have an information table for the perks offered and

the fundraiser link !
