NYC Halloween Parade
This year’s Halloween Parade was amazing with temperatures over 80 degrees! All of the painting took place in the public streets and then we rode our float through the crowds. Once again, DJ John Rovito provided the tunes. It was a blast! See you next year! -
Open Mic with Guy Grizzly
Our 1st Open Mic was a lot of fun. Host Guy Grizzly played many songs with his soulful lyrics. Performances included live music, storytelling and poetry. The day was enjoyed by dozens of local friends and neighbors. We look forward to more performances at the Amphitheater! -
Bodypainting Retreat #3
People travel far and wide to immerse in nature, art, play and connection with bodypainting, photos and improv in the woods, yoga, massage, sound baths, BBQ, sharing stories around a campfire, black light bodypainting…& more! -
Live Music & Art Party
The debut of our new amphitheater was great! We were treated to a live performance by singer/songwriter Guy Grizzly. Earlier in the afternoon families and artists picnicked and painted canvases, rocks and faces to the tunes of DJ John Rovito. -
