About Lower Manhattan Cultural Council
http://www.lmcc.net
For 35 years, Lower Manhattan Cultural Council (LMCC) has been the leading arts presenter, advocate, and service provider to artists and arts groups throughout Lower Manhattan. LMCC was founded by David Rockefeller and other business and civic leaders in 1973 and was housed in the World Trader Center until 9/11. The Council, which was created shortly after the Twin Towers were built, was established to humanize the architecture of the World Trade Center Plaza. LMCC grew as downtown grew and today is Manhattan's largest and farthest-reaching arts council, bringing diverse cultural experiences to new audiences in unexpected ways and serving as a gateway to culture, information, and resources across the entire borough. |

About Secret Project Robot
http://www.secretprojectrobot.org
Secret Project Robot: Art Experiment is a not for profit art center dedicated to the documentation and proliferation of contemporary art and current cultural trends in music, performance, dance, the party and social theory. It was founded in 2004 by a group of friends who produce, observe and interact with art as a way of life. By combining the ever developing concepts of what it is to create and what it is to consume HappyFun has married the ideas of these two seemingly opposing theories into a postmodern fairy tale. Taking from the concept of "happily ever after..." HappyFun creates an installation that adresses the social dreams of a capitalist world, culminating with the ultimate adventure! Christmas shopping! YAY! |
