Free Stuff Resource!

by mapgirl on April 18, 2007

The Washington Post has a free stuff resource guide that was published last Thursday. I don’t know if you need a log in. You might. Try Bugmenot.com if you do.

It’s focused mostly on DC area stuff, but there is plenty in there for people who live all over the US.

With that, let me plug my favorite bi-ennial-ish arts show, Art-O-Matic! It’s in Crystal City, VA this year instead of it’s usual locale of DC. It’s metro and bus accessible. Drinks and snacks are sold but mostly to fund the event. Donations are accepted. It’s free and there is a lot of good stuff there, say the 3-7 people I know who regularly display their work or perform there.

For those of you who don’t know Art-O-Matic, it gets its name from its first venue inside a laundromat. The organizers try to find an old office building every two years or so and open it up, warehouse-style, for artists’ galleries and performance areas. This is the third or fourth time I’ve gone. It’s usually in November, but due to some issues they moved it to April this year.

If you are local to DC, check it out. It’s free and fun!

Right now, my favorite stuff there is Tim Hayes, 4traits, Dead Men’s Hollow, Tim Tate and Laurie Breen.

This is a very important question: Where are the Peeps dioramas?

Clearly, I’m very cultured.

Funny you should ask. I told my co-worker yesterday that I would make him a mirror for his new home with his fiancee that would have stale peeps around edge. The bunnies though instead of the chicks.

I love a good stale Peep.
