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 hosts many past projects, artworks, artistic initiatives, happenings, and documented events. Become immersed somewhere in our creative process.

Play City

City is a performance game that re-imagines the museum as an urban metropolis. We explore the politics of exchange and pretending through the ongoing collaborative fictioning of our CITYzens, and document the docudramatics on film.
