Studio Arrabbiata on Television

 The tv documentary made about the Jersey Shore Arts Center and its tenants finally airs tomorrow night at 8 pm.  The show is called Here's The Story: Old School Art School.  It will appear on New Jersey's PBS station (channel 8 on our local cable system) at that time, and anyone who gets that station can watch it at home. However, if you are a tenant of the building, we are having a special screening of the broadcast in our 1st floor theater, complete with refreshments before, and hosted by producer Steve Rogers.  I know he took video of me a few times, and interviewed me as part of his process.  I have no idea what he used of all that (if anything), but I did my part, and I'll know more after I see it.  If he uses any of the footage shot in our space, you'll see a view of what the Studio actually looks like, or maybe some of my art, or maybe both.  The show will also air sometime late at night next week, and possibly other times in the future, but I haven't heard anything yet.  This week it's part of a festival of shows about the local area, so there are some other documentaries floating around on that network, mostly about Asbury and such, but I had nothing to do with those.  If you have a half hour to kill tomorrow night, you can check it out and learn more about what we do in our old building on the corner of Main and Main.

Jeanne, our director at JSAC, said she would send out a reminder to the tenants today via email, and she did.  How many show up is unknown right now, but she told me (and wrote) that things would start on time, so for those of us in the building, we better be on time.  Those watching at home will do what they want.
