\nAT KOLAJ FEST NEW ORLEANS<\/p>\n

Collage Party at Art Klub & Exhibition Opening: “Femme Fatale Freed” by Art Klub Resident Emily Stone<\/h2>\n

1941 Arts Street, New Orleans
\nJuly 11, 2019, 6-9PM<\/h3>\n

Art Klub welcomes Kolaj Fest New Orleans with COLLAGE PARTY, an evening of collage making, show & tell, and readings celebrating the opening of the exhibition “Femme Fatale Freed” by Art Klub Resident Emily Stone.<\/p>\n

Opened in September 2017 in the St. Roch neighborhood, Art Klub is a residency, performance, and exhibition space dedicated to providing accessible and inclusive community programming for artists and audiences. They serve as a producer and venue for visual and performing arts, creating programming that’s arts-centered and community-driven. Learn more at www.artklub.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Florida artist Emily Stone presents the results of her paper arts residency at Art Klub. In her “Femme Fatale Freed” series, Stone removes “femmes fatales” from paintings made between the late 18th and early 19th centuries and uses collage to dress them royal attire and place them in dreamlike backgrounds. In doing this, Stone gave these femmes fatales new life in an empowering world filled with possibility.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>At COLLAGE PARTY, in addition to collage making, participants in Kolaj Fest New Orleans will have an opportunity to show images of their collage and tell a story about them. These presentations will intermingle with a series of readings being organized by Portland, Oregon collagist and writer Kevin Sampsell. COLLAGE PARTY is open to everybody in New Orleans and an opportunity for Kolaj Fest New Orleans to meet and mingle with the city’s art community. Doors open at 6PM. Presentations begin at 7PM.<\/p>\n

Collage Party at Art Klub is free & open to everyone.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The bar is sponsored by Seven-Three Distillery<\/a> and CANarchy Beer Collective<\/a>. Drinks are $5 or $20 for an open bar. A drink ticket is included in the Kolaj Fest New Orleans registration packet. Bar proceeds benefit Art Klub.<\/p>\n
