Mask Making Class

Before there was Spirit Halloween, there was our creativity.

Maybe because Halloween only lasts one night, the culture of fast fashion and disposability feels especially amplified when it comes to costumes.

Let’s make something uniquely, frighteningly, and sustainably yours.

Approved Textiles is bringing their Mask Making Workshop to Tattooed Mom for a special three-hour, 21+ workshop focused on the deeply unsettling—yet mesmerizing—art of handmade face masks.

You’ll map out, design, and begin constructing your own mask with support from our facilitators. This is slow fashion, so whether you finish your mask during the workshop depends on the size, scope, and scale of your project.

We’ll also take little breaks for devious bites and spooktacular spirits (not included in the workshop price).

 

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30TH
6-9PM
TICKETS $108
RSVP: APPROVED TEXTILES

 

Featuring:
Matthew Addonizio, Facilitator, co-founder Approved Textiles
Ali Dworsack, Co-Facilitator, founder Camilla Mustard
Miss Thing, Co-Facilitator, Transdisciplinary Drag Artist
Haven DeAnglis, Co-Facilitator, co-founder Stitch and Destroy

Jay Can’t Watch “The Holy Mountain”

Ya know how some films need to be seen to be believed? Screw that.

Jay loves watching and analyzing films from the 1970s, but also films from that era can be… a lot. Thus Alejandro Jodorowsky’s “The Holy Mountain” remains an un-watched, nay un-watchable film. To fix this, James is going to describe to them, and you, in as much detail as is reasonable every event, image, implication, and moral of this 1973 psychedelic art house cacophony while Jay sketches the scenes live as they envision them. A three hour evening in three “acts” audiences are invited to come and go as they please, patronize Tattooed Mom’s kitchen and bar, and even play along via the most high-brow game of telephone pictionary yet attempted by man. By the end of the evening Jay, and y’all, will have watched “The Holy Mountain”.

Without actually having to watch “The Holy Mountain”.
