CALL : 855 - IRL - MAGIC for real call this number - it is fun and free!!! Don’t wait! UPDATES!!! Naffisatou Koulibaly Something about life feels very serious & intense right now. Maybe it’s because I’m working on the release of my first self-published chapbook omgggg or my DP window installation for July. This is my last few months at DP so I’m working hard to complete some of the projects I began while living here! Excited to share and there will be a lot coming at you all very soon. Look out on my instagram @n.affisatou Q (John-Francis Quiñonez) Ah yes, Good S P R I N G to you Dear Dirt Palace Reader! It is indeed still S P R I N G ~ a season, I find, gets undue grief for the terrors of Winter without praise for the gentler Summer vibes we are enjoying now! I hope you are able to safely bury your face in some peak foliage or flowers should you desire. Mayhaps enjoy some Stonefruit or an Asparagus? Strawberries are coming in H A W T T T T! The bounties are available to you - eagerly waiting, even. Anywho. I do not have much to update here! It was recently my Birthday, and I am finally locked into a simpler version of my life compared to the semi-touring, many-plate-spinning last several months. If you’re in Providence I hope to see you >>> 🐇 At Big Feeling Ice Cream Co. (769 Westminster) for a scoop! We are into our first busy season so I have been mostly behind the scenes and frantically cooking! Come by for sweet vibes, and treats (with all nut-free, and many vegan options)! 🐇 At Lost Bag ( 4 Aurora St above the PBJ ) for a show! Many good things on deck, and we’ve got an A/C unit now! Should be a lovely Warm Season. Next we chat, I should have updates about my next Gallery Show and potential Fall Tour! Be well, Stay Sweet! ses helllloooo ses nation! As i’m writing this, i just got back from doing another year of maid cafe at anime boston and i am soo painfully tired… sorry if it doesn’t make any sense. Been painting a bunch! I should have a piece up at the Atlantic Mills gallery “building infinity” for the next couple weekends! It’d be great to have you come by and see it and all the other amazing artwork available for your viewing pleasure :) My days have mostly been filled with reading and sketching these days! I started some tattoo projects that i’m excited to continue working on soon! Puzzling through some print projects i’ve got in the works as well! So many projects beaten out by fatigue, but this time i feel a huge amount of pressure and want to get it done! Learning more dances! It’s been years since i’ve learned a new one and i feel excited to work on it. Pippi Zornoza The Bell that Never Stops Ringing was written up in the bandcamp daily under “Best New Experimental Music”. Check it out! You might be thinking…. Pippi… when did you get into promo and writing about album reviews… and I would say… IDK - Honestly - It feels weird… I’m not sure that I like bringing it up - but I have to say that Ratskin Records who released the album have been such stellar champs, putting so much energy into this release and showing it so much love that I want to honor all their hard labor. Really truly a gem of a record label. Never felt so cared for as an artist. Check them out HERE. On that note - Ratskin will be hosting a “listening party” to the album in July on Bandcamp.  What does that look like? I’m not sure - I imagine like a chat room while we all listen together? You listen to me scream and send heart emojis? Ask me questions about material I wrote over a decade ago?  I’ll tell you where each and every sample is sourced from? and we reminisce about different times? I’ll post here when I know the date!
