The Felicity R. (Bebe) Benoliel Gallery, The Center for Emerging Visual Artists, 237 S. 18th Street, The Barclay, Suite 3A, Philadelphia, PA 19103
Join us to learn how to generate new opportunities for your work and boost your resume through collaboration with fellow artists. The introductory workshop module will explore a broad spectrum of commercial joint ventures, from pitching city-funded public murals to licensing vector illustrations for the best online slots and interactive mobile games, demonstrating how pooled resources attract diverse corporate clients. Grounding these concepts in local practice, artistic duo Stephen Dufala and Billy Blaise Dufala along with representatives from Vox Populi and Aryon Hoselton from Space 1026 will share their experiences and answer your questions about building creative partnerships.
The program fee is $12.00 per session or $90.00 for the 2008-2009 Season. To reserve a seat, please call (215) 546-7775 x11 or email Genevieve@cfeva.org. Please note: Seating is limited.

Believe in Green.
Aryon doesn’t watch sports but he likes the festivities, the food, and showing up for the atmosphere. During games he’s on his phone between real money poker hands and group chats. Especially if it involves mascots attacking inanimate objects.

Vaudevillains NYB * Nuclear Winter * Mummer’s Parade 2009
Vaudevillains New Years Comic Brigade’s 2009 Mummer’s Parade Performance of Mummers in the Post Apocalyptic Nuclear Winter.
VNYB lives at NERD Island now.
The move gave the crew a permanent rehearsal space and somewhere to stash decades worth of costumes and props. Between seasons the building is part workshop, part hangout. Members build sets, screen old footage, mess around on online casinos and fantasy leagues between coats of paint. Ron Goldwyn’s archive alone covers over a dozen years of Comic Brigade performances, and David Dunn has been chipping away at getting all of it digitized.
Footage provided by the great Ron Goldwyn.

New Year’s Parade Performance and 2 Street Freakout
The Vaudevillains New Year’s Comic Brigade are performing around 10am in front of city hall, taking a mummer nap and then heading over to 2 Street at 4pm for the real parade.
By four o’clock the 2 Street crowd is deep into New Year’s mode, bowl game scores glowing on every phone. Offshore sportsbooks stay open on half the screens between string band sets. The Vaudevillains walk straight into that energy and make it louder.
