Hello, people of Lawrence! The Hang12 group has cr

Hello, people of Lawrence! The Hang12 group has created a project that will help folks stay connected in these tricky times of covid-19. Our team has created the ArtBox in hopes to connect the folks of Lawrence with their art.
The ArtBox is very similar to the local libraries seen all over town, however it will contain art instead of books. The system of taking a piece & leaving a piece is open to anyone of any age. The ArtBox will be officially opening this June Final Friday, June 26th, 2020. The ArtBox will be housed at 901 Pennsylvania Street. Since public gatherings are not suggested at this time, Hang12 has created another way for people to stay connected for this project opening! The group is taking to social media to model what a public gathering would have been. The hashtag #h12artbox will be used to keep everyone connected throughout the opening process. Anyone is welcome to look up the hashtag on their social media to see what others are doing to contribute to this project. Folks are welcome to share photos of their art, art supplies, and art creating areas (whether that be outside or inside!). The hashtag can also be used to share photos of folks placing their art in the box and taking art in return.
Hang12 understands that not everyone currently has access to art supplies, so we have created a system in hopes of getting more supplies out to people. We have created art supply baggies for folks to pick up at Art Emergency, 721 9th Street. These baggies will be available on Friday June 26th through Monday June 29th from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm. We ask that everyone take one bag per person, so supplies are available for everyone who needs them. These supplies will be available underneath the Art Emergency sign, which is pictured.
Hang12 hopes to see the Lawrence Arts Community get involved and stay connected with this project!

Hang12 has been taking a break from our regular so

Hang12 has been taking a break from our regular social media posts to sit down as a team and figure out how we are best able to support the #blacklivesmatter movement with our platform. Along with spreading relevant information to the community & donating where we’re able, we would love to support local black creators via social media. We plan to do this by creating a story highlight showcasing your work, platform, online shop, donation page, or any other information you’d like us to include. If you’re interested, please let us know via DM! Also, feel free to tag any visual artists/musicians/creative souls below to let them know about this opportunity. #kccreatives #lawrenceart

Under Everything is a collaborative show between StARTup and Hang12 featuring work from three StARTup artists: Mina Dailey, Emma Nasseri, and Theodore Weis.

In the words of Zöe, our Foundations Manager: “I am so grateful to have a job as a Hang12 member and I really encourage you to apply! This position is perfect for teens who are involved in the Lawrence arts community or anyone who would like to be involved! Curating experience can be rare for high schoolers, but working for Hang12 will make your skill set and resume much more unique. Through my time at Hang12, I have gained knowledge on art shows, working in a group setting, and communication skills. Overall, this job is very enjoyable and having the final product of monthly art shows is rewarding.” Our hiring period is still open - check out the link in our bio to apply!

Behind the scenes photos of hang days for past shows🖼🔨💥Our group prepares for hang days by curating and framing pieces at the Lawrnece Arts Center. Then, the Tuesday before the show opening we have our hang day! Display coordinators lead the group in deciding arrangement, how pieces are hung, and then installing them. These days are typically our busiest meetings; however, also the most exciting!
