Workshops for studio

In case I missed you in the email because I can't count:


I wanted to ask if anyone was interested in leading a particular workshop,
about 30 minutes, for the Issues studio class.
Just let me know which you'd want to do (my email is redblockdrop at gmail),
and if you're available on Fridays in case people had more questions or you
had more info.
If there's any that are not on the list we can add it. Thanks!

Group Names

Thanks for the invite Keith.

Just wanted to remind everybody to be on the lookout for good names for our group in Portland. I feel like good titles are just something you stumble on, so if you stumble onto a good one, pitch it out there.

Also, we should all get together a couple times over the summer and chill. (And if somebody happens to bring alcohol we should probably help drink that.)

-Paul Pederson

Room

I need to find an apartment/room this summer in Portland, It would be great to see if there is anyone looking for a roommate !?

Welcome

Esteemed peers, welcome to the White Stag BFA 2012 temporary blog.

I hope this will serve as a spot for any and all of us to update each other on:
1) their search for a chill pad in Northeast Portland (and any housing matters in general)
2) cool work you may be doing over the summer
3) links to blog posts and artists sites (yours as well as admired artists)
4) hair-brained ideas
