Painting 10th Ave
Sat, Oct 10, 3:00 PMIn the 1800s, Tenth Avenue was known as Death Avenue thanks to the at-grade freight railway. In the 1900s, Robert Moses took that railway off of the street and elevated it through the middle of the block instead (being a force of demolition even when saving lives). In the 2000s, the abandoned railway was transmogrified into the High Line. Our meeting point will be at 11am in the little sidewalk park at the northwest corner of W17th and 10th Ave. Check in with me on-site so I know who's attending, and then we'll disperse to our individual painting spots. At 2pm, we'll meet back up to show off our art and discuss the day. Gather your materials (watercolor, oils, gouache, acrylics, marker: all are welcome) and join with other artists for the joys and challenges of painting outside!

Meet Artists at Gowanus Open Studios
Sun, Oct 18, 8:00 PMJoin GTBN to visit **[Gowanus Open Studios!](https://www.artsgowanus.org/gowanus-open-studios-2026)**[ ](https://www.artsgowanus.org/gowanus-open-studios-2026) Specifically, we will be visiting one building on the circuit containing many studios, **TI Art Studios!** Gowanus Open Studios will be Saturday and Sunday, but our group will be "meeting up" on Sunday 10/18 at 4PM! **What to Expect** Meet us in the "Sweet Lorraine" Gallery at 4:30PM! Once you get to the TI Studios from the elevator, follow the signs for Sweet Lorraine Gallery. We'll look at the art exhibit there and then head out to see other studios in the building. Some artists will have art available for purchase, and others will be for viewing only. **How to get there** TI Arts Studio's Entrance is up a ramp at 183 Lorraine Street in the Red Hook Neighborhood of Brooklyn. Be sure to check Googlemaps as Red Hook always takes longer to get to than you think it will. **Arts Appreciation Opportunity** Friend of GTBN, cartoonist **Mindy Indy** is in the process of creating pencil sketches, inking, and creating vibrant watercolor concept art of otherworldly **Martian landscapes** for her sci-fi series *AER HEAD*. Be sure to stop by Mindy's studio to learn about her upcoming comic. She is also running a KickStarter to fund the 3rd Issue of AER HEAD!
