DESCRIPTION:Channel your inner Banksy, Fairey and JR and take part in workshops, 
 demonstrations and performances that probe the realm of public art, street 
 art and site-specific art for Street Art Night at the MAH, July 20th  from 
 5-9.\n\nThe Museum and Abbott Square will be transformed in our drive to 
 redefine ordinary spaces and objects into art.  Parking spots will taken 
 over as theatre performances, light poles will become knitted sculptures, 
 bubble blowing baths will deck the patio, trees may change their colors and 
 moss will grow in words on our walls.\n\nLeave your mark in the corners of 
 Abbott Square with mosaic artist Kathleen Crocetti. Master various 
 spray-painting techniques with artist  Krusch Rhoades. Contribute to our 
 new mural along the front street entrance led by artist Elijah Pfotenhauer. 
 Enjoy music by various buskers and the Dusty Porch Orchestra as well as 
 performances by skateboarders and dancers.\n\nTry out an array of workshops 
 in knitting from local knitting groups and origami with Linda Jiang.  Enjoy 
 live painting and chalk art with Made Fresh Collective or  learn finger 
 knitting from students in the MAH’s Urban Arts Camp as they teach 
 visitors how to yarn bomb our stairway. \n\nIn the atrium of the museum 
 visitors are invited to make their dream city out of cardboard to explore 
 alternative architecture and redefine public spaces in a collaborative 
 cardboard version of Pacific Ave. Create urban art in our galleries by 
 writing your own labels for the artwork on post it notes.\n\nArtist Trading 
 Cards are miniature artworks that are traded, never sold. They must be 
 2.5”x 3.5” and can be made with any time of medium. They can be 
 painted, sewn, collaged or drawn.\n\nParticipant will be invited to make 
 Artist Trading Cards made from different materials and media. They can then 
 trade or give away their sewn, painted, collaged or drawn cards to each 
 other throughout the evening with artists Sarah Brothers and Carmina 
 Eliason.\n\nAs John Newling once said, “Public art, in all its diversity, 
 can mediate all spaces as places.” Come out and make the Santa Cruz 
 Museum of Art & History your place.\n\nThank you to the following 
 collaborators: Kathleen Crocetti, Shay Barsabe, Krusch Rhoades, Made Fresh 
 Collective,  Elijah Pfotenhauer, Denise Shaw, MAH Urban Arts Camp, Carmen 
 Clark, Taylor Reinhold, Linda Jiang, Sarah Brothers, Carmina Eliason and
