Kiosk Hello

Lee, Massachusetts, a beautiful town and to an outsider, a patriotic one of sorts at that. It’s massive white Romanesque style church built in 1857, Main Street and Joe’s Diner gives it an All-American touch, in a good way. Rockwell, the most American of American painters we all know and some possibly love, was buzzing around Lee and in 1958 he painted “The Runaway” at Joe’s for the cover of “The Saturday Evening Post”. (If you are in the area it’s interesting to spend an hour or so at the Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge) Hungry around the same time we were in Lee we detoured into Joe’s and had that relatively unknown in my book but who the heck knows the real story dish called “Grapenut Pudding” ( a New England favorite according to “Yankee” magazine among others) and we shared a coffee milkshake, it was a beautiful moment and reminded me of why I love this country deep down under the MANY layers of our current quagmire. Massachusetts is chock full of American history, we all need a little pride in our place of origin to make things happen, let’s hope the next election goes well. Happy July 4th from the heart of New York City!

More things happening, the space is really packed with bags and Jason is sewing away. Sitting among them yesterday I thought it would be great to make a sub-room in KIOSK with the walls made of plastic bags that can hold all of the products commissioned for the Mini-Exhibitions. Will have to talk to Jason about that idea! Don’t forget the party tonight from 6 - 10pm!

People are bringing in bags and bags and sending bags via the post and things are being sewn…It’s hot in our little space! Yesterday Jason made me a rain hat since we had thunderstorms in New York, at first he was making them without a brim but then he started adding one on, good decision and great design. KIOSK commissioned product 2? I think so! Bravo to the day, I am hoping people come visit us on a Sunday even though we are normally closed. I am excited as Jason made a new KIOSK logo and a screen to match it, we decided to screen all the plastic bags from the show at the end of the happening with the logo he created to recycle the bags one step further and keep his Mini-Exhibition going on and on and on…nice! See some pictures of what is going on and of course my really lovely rain hat. Sorry for so many images here, could not choose! What the heck!

One of the most beautiful semi-modernist grocery stores out there can be found in Adams Massachusetts. Not as glorious on the inside however…Big Y yeah
