LAST WEEK to see G-40

This is the LAST WEEK to see G-40. Don't miss out on the event that everyone is talking about. As the Washington Post wrote, this is "Art on a Grand Scale."

Special Events at G-40 This Week
Thursday:

From 6-8pm, Albus Cavus is taking participatory public art from the outside to the classroom. The Thursday class is Beat Production – Words, Beats and Life. The class is all ages, and has a $30 suggested donation. The workshops are held on the 8th floor next to the installation created by CRI, RVLTN, RAIN, JAZI, DECOY, CON, ULTRA, ROSINA, MIKA ALTSKAN and PETER K.

Friday:

Georgetown at G40, with a special musical performance by See-I. Sponsored by the Georgetown University Art Aficionados.

GU Art Aficionados is a community of art enthusiasts committed to expanding artistic opportunities at Georgetown and the greater DC community, and by doing so, catalyzing creative thinking among students.

SEE-I has become one of the east coast's premier party bands because they know how to get people dancing all night with a smile on their face.

From 6-8pm Albus Cavus will present an art workshop: Tag Your Name taught by Asad “ULTRA” Walker. All ages are welcome with a $5 per name suggested donation. Please wear work clothes.
