while in class……
I gotta say, the guerilla lighting demo and subsequent, light painting competition never get old in my Photo 1 class. Fierce teams last night!
The best parts are:
- They have to learn to work together and collaborate
- They learn how to improvise and think outside the box
- You get to use Tim Gunn’s “Make it work!” over, and over, and over again.

Storyline Transports: Shadow and Light Festival is a public art performance initiative within the Chicago metropolitan area. Using converted automobiles (two pick-up trucks and a van) as physical and symbolic vehicles, this mobile festival delivers a novel art experience to Chicago’s diverse communities.
Festival Dates and Locations
Public Locations:
August 20th – Experimental Station (Hyde Park) 5-8pm
www.experimentalstation.org/
Community Locations (archi-treasures Sites):
August 10th – Barbara Jean Wright Courts 5-9pm
August 14th – Westhaven Park 4-9pm
August 24th – Germano Millgate Apartments 5-9pm
Through a collaboration with archi-treasures, a non-profit, arts-based community development organization, the festival reaches neighborhoods which are under-served by traditional arts programing. The festival aims to create an engaging and interactive experience for these communities through shadow puppet theater and paper arts. A hands-on puppet making workshop, a paper lantern making workshop, a video screening, and a collaborative lantern installation allow attendees to share in creative story telling. Converted trucks are used to transport the festival throughout the city. The workshops are directed toward all age groups.
6+ weekend! Big things coming.
