NYE @ the Asylum

Monday, December 29, 2008

The Phoenix Asylum, Boulders' newest art collective, is hosting a Grand Opening New Years Eve party. Just steps away from the BurnWorks, in the Lower East Side Fire Arts District.
2510 47th St., Unit D/DD Map

$10 gets you state of the art fire performers, fire sculptures, DJ's, VJ's, a huge heated indoor dance space, outdoor patio serving Hot Toddies, separate indoor ambient chill space, $1 PBRs*, free parking, midnight champagne, and more!

Early evening welding, plasma cutting, and wood working demos and workshops, studio and loft tours, meet artists who work in various medias.

This will be a cutting edge NYE party - be there or be mainstream!

*You must be 21 to consume alcohol.

We're still here

Happy Holidays to each and every one of you. The Boulder BurnWorks has been in a state of quasi hibernation lately due to the crazy amount of other things going on in and around Boulder.

Boulder SantaCon, Parade of Lights, Christmas on Mars, Santa Bowling, Lyons SantaCon, Fantastic Hosts, Denver SantaCon, the upcoming SantaCRUISE and numerous NYE parties.

The BurnWorks has some new projects up their sleeves that you will see sometime after the new year. New bicycles, new furniture, maybe some flame toys too!

In other news, the Phoenix Asylum is making headway on getting their space up and running. It is going to be pretty cool to have another art collective in the neighborhood so be on the lookout for some joint art openings in the future.

Well, time to get back to the day job.

Happy Chrismahanukwanzakah.

Awesome Tool Chest

Thursday, December 4, 2008

I would love to have this!


"Studley was an 1800s organ and piano maker, as well as a carpenter and mason, who worked for the Smith Organ Co. He built this amazing tool-chest which packs in just about every device and instrument an organ tuner might need on location. (via BoingBoing!)"

New Neighbors

Just a quick note to say welcome to our new neighbors, The Phoenix Asylum! 


A new artist collective will be opening up housing a large group of artisans that work in a variety of media. They have decided to call the space, the Phoenix Asylum. Great name. It is exciting news and I hope more artists move into the neighborhood in the future. I envision a new "artist alley" where Boulderites will come for First Friday events. 

Stay tuned for joint events between the BurnWorks and the Asylum!
