shutdown 2009. closing up shop for the season is hardly as simple as turning off the museum lights. after 2 weeks of all day sorting, two secret rooms later, and over 100 fabric bolts re-rolled, we’re finally ready to let the building chill for the winter. the 2010 season begins march 17th.

Elsewhere Residencies invite artists, curators, theorists, and makers of all kinds and media to unfold and transform a living museum. Next application Deadline March 31st. Learn more.
Elsewhere is an immersive world of things, collections, and arrangements. One can relate artistic explorations through the things that materialize creation. Check out our fabric!
Explore the tale of Sylvia Gray, shop keep and collector, who’s immense store-house of things became the source for a collaborative community ever-assembling and re-working a living museum.
Take a swim among Elsewhere’s many past projects, artworks, artistic initiatives, happenings, and documented events. Each time you click on this “puddle” you will become immersed somewhere in our creative process.
City is a performance game that re-imagines Elsewhere's museum as a city. We explore the politics of xchange and pretending through the ongoing collaborative fictioning of the story of our CITYzens. Watch the docudramatics here.
Elsewhere practices the question: what can art do? We investigate the places and spaces and things and processes and practices and people that electrify philosophies of the infra-ordinary, sensational, and collaborative.
