BAX is
hosting a fund raiser this weekend, the BAX Super Sale. It’s a stoop sale on
the corner of 6th Avenue and Third Street in Park Slope.
Third Street and 6th Avenue? That's right near where I live! What a great location.
Again the
date is Sunday, October 4th. The sale begins at 11 am and will go
until 5 pm. If people wish to drop off things for the sale that will happen
the day of the sale, from 8- 10 am.
This sale is to benefit BAX which offers arts and enrichment classes for kids and adults. In fact, I will be teaching a HOW TO BLOG class there in December.
BAX, Park Slope's arts education and performance treasure, was founded in 1991, as a small, pioneer arts organization on an
industrial block in the Gowanus area of Brooklyn. In 1998, BAX moved to
lower Fifth Avenue in Park Slope, Brooklyn to accommodate a growing
demand for services. By 2006, BAX had achieved most of its programmatic
and infrastructure expansion goals and seized the opportunity to expand
to a second floor and create THE BAX BUILDING. BAX currently has five full-time and four part-time employees, a roster of 24 teaching artists, four interns and volunteers.
BAX is a place that connects people. It is a rigorous forum for
ideas and creativity. A place for families, artists, students, and
audiences — a community asset. BAX provides advocacy and opportunities
for emerging and mid level professional dance and theater artists to
develop, grow, explore and present new work. BAX is also well known for
its comprehensive youth programs that support young people, toddlers
through teens, in their pursuit of creative skills and experiences in
dance and theater.
