Description:

Adults Are So Last Year was an event that invited kids of all ages to collaborate with artists and musicians in a series of activities, games, and projects exploring media art, music, and visual art.

Colleen Brown and Dawn Cerny used supplies and tools sourced from Western Front to carry out an iteration of their collaborative project Form Play. Participants were invited to explore the building while playing with a collection of materials.

Cindy Mochizuki led a stop-motion workshop where participants used everyday objects to create small films that responded to questions and concerns around the “future.” 

Alanna Ho’s workshops focused on creating stories with sound effects, offered an introduction to circuit making, and explored sound using the hydrophone. 

Participants were also invited to play with an assortment of instruments made by Gamelan Bike Bike from recycled bike parts. 

Presented with the support of G&F Financial Group, Buy Low Foods, D-Original Sausage, Earnest Ice Cream.
