Open Lot Opens
Open Lot, located in a former yeast factory, is a new interdisciplinary studio/exhibition space in Lafayette Square (1310 S. 18th Street to be exact). Their first show “We’ll Talk More Later” is a collaborative affair featuring St. Louis artists Greg Edmondson and Lot dwellers. It takes place Friday, November 9th. The following evening Open Lot features the extravagant sounds of Pittsburgh avant-folk/noise/drone/acoustic/electronic musician Mike Tamburo.
Participants include recent grads from SIUE, Washington University, and Mizzou: Angela Malchionno, Aaron Jacobson, B.J. Vogt, Em Heymeyer, Jonathan Lisenby, and Jordan Hicks.
I’m very interested to see how this space evolves. You can find out more at their myspace page at http://www.myspace.com/openlot.
