Stairwell’s Valley Step Works

July 26, 2016July 26, 2016 by editorartworks, posted in Community Event, In The News, Updates

HVAW is excited to announce the residency of Stairwell’s during the month of August, culminating in a celebratory daytime event on Sunday, August 28.

A collaborative project led by San Francisco-based artists Sarah Hotchkiss and Carey Lin, Stairwell’s creates new experiences that challenge familiar understandings of everyday surroundings. The project has taken many forms, from site-specific interventions to group walking tours to curated exhibitions. Stairwell’s seeks to foster temporary communities of curious and engaged individuals, providing opportunities for connections and changes in perspective.

Stairwell’s will hold on-site hours at HVAW as they develop their final event: an exploratory walk, circuit training of the non-athletic variety and prizes for those who do something exceptionally well.]

Thanks to Mikal Malkovich and Peter McQuaid from Haight Street Art Center, we were able to have a GoPro camera capture some amazing footage of last month’s Labyrinth Design with Mary Teetor @HVArtWorks.

With the help of Abuntoo, a new fundraising platform where donors can pick rewards offered by a local business as a thank-you gift, we are launching a month-long campaign to raise $3,000 for a new project for the site, ‘A Walk Through Time’, which will combine art with an interactive narrative history of Hayes Valley. To support the project and to receive rewards from local businesses like CityRide Bike Rentals, visit Abuntoo at www.abuntoo.io

Amazing Views from Above and Below

The transformation from a vacant lot to an active, beautiful community space is more and more apparent everyday. We’re beginning to see our beloved vacant lot in a new light (well, new lights) and also from a new perspective.

A big thank you to Nathaniel from Avalon Hayes Valley for the exciting perspective from the rooftop of the apartments across the street on Hickory (a.k.a. Parcel P, the old 101 on-ramp, the Hayes Valley Farm tree-fic jam and apiary, etc.).
