ARTfarm keeps growing…

Work on the stairs is continuing as we installed more planters and planted the vines along the railings. Check out the latest pics.

AFHny Studio would like to thank all our amazing volunteers that keep braving the heat and come out to build ARTfarm. Workdays vary each week, please contact: studio@afhny.com for exact times of the next workday.

Last but not least, big thanks to our 81 backers that supported us on Kickstarter, we reached our funding goal, YAY!

ARTfarm starts to grow…

 

At last we started working on the slope, let’s see

Permit from the city: check

plants & paint: check

enthusiastic and very helpful kids: check!

We ended our last build day of June with our first really big planters in place with their blooming and drama queens hydrangeas.

Big thanks go out to the Bronx Museum and local community for their precious help and for bringing us water; from bottles (us) and from the hydrant (plants)

Please join us as we continue building ARTfarm. We will be there on July 3rdand July 10th in addition to that we more likely will have build days during the week too, so let us know if you are interested in coming up.

For exact times and more information on other ways to help, please e-mail us at: studio@afhny.org

If you would like to donate to this project please visit our Kickstarter page, we only have few days left!
