VISUAL ARTS + MUSEUMS

War'Hous Visual Studios presents the Lawndale Mural Project Fundraising Event.

War"Hous is hosting a fundraising exhibition/event at WAR'HOUS VISUAL STUDIOS on Saturday 6/16/12 and proceeds will go towards funding a new collaborative mural to be on the North Exterior Wall of Lawndale Art Center. FREE and OPEN to the public. Address: 4715 Main St. 77002 (6-10pm).

The evening features a benefit exhibition of artwork by the muralists & friends plus Music By: DJ Meshak.

As a continuation of the "Famous Monsters" mural created by Daniel Anguilu, Lawndale Art Center presents a collaborative mural by Daniel Anguilu, James Burns, Tierney L. Malone, Angel Quesada, Michael C. Rodriguez, Roland Saldaña and Dandee Warhol on view August 24, 2012 - January 12, 2013.

This project is the first collaborative effort of this group of artists. Elements of street art will help to navigate the narrative design and special attention will be paid to complimenting the building's historic nature and location.

Alex Luster, director of "Stick 'em Up!" video documents the process and will present a digital-short to accompany an artist panel to be held at Lawndale upon the completion of the mural.
