The Tacoma SIT IN

SUZY STUMP: BE THE CHAIR >>>

Chairshadow There’s more to you than meets the eye. There are parts of you even Superman can’t see. Even if you just sit around all day, and are not well traveled, your soul could be. So. A veritable fount of creativity sits inside you, just waiting to be released.

Tacoma guerrilla letterpress entity Beautiful Angle knows this about you. They know you need to express your soul. They sat down and thought about you. A lot. Until their asses hurt from sitting so long. And then it came to them.

A SIT IN.

And they know you’re in.

Beautiful Angle asks you, your soul and the rest of Tacoma to participate in their latest city-wide renegade art project called The Tacoma SIT IN.

There are at least three ways in which you can participate:

  1. Create an “Art Chair” and leave in out on the street in some conspicuous location.
  2. Create your own chair themed guerilla art.
  3. Bring a chair and a roll of blue painters tape to Tollefson Plaza Thursday, Sept. 10 at 4 p.m. Beautiful Angle will be creating a flash mob, art project. The first 50 people to show up, with said supplies, will receive the latest Beautiful Angle poster, which will include the talents of William Kupinse, former poet laureate of Tacoma, up and coming silkscreen artist Tyler Kalberg.

“We thought a chair is a great symbol for Tacoma, practical and inviting,” states Beautiful Angle co-founder Lance Kagey in a release.

So get off your chair and start creating. Your soul will thank you.
