ANNELI SANAYE HENRIKSSONHi! Hello! Sup! I'm Anneli and I am a new member of the Dirt Palace. In August I moved from Chicago to Providence to live at the Dirt Palace! I first visited Providence and the Dirt Palace In 2017 when I did a mini month long residency and window installation here. I fell in love with the Dirt Palace and I was determined to return. It took me two years, but I am so I happy I finally made it here. After ten wild and chaotic years living in Chicago, Providence is a dream!

This October I'm traveling to Napa, CA to be a visiting artist in residence at the Oxbow School, a single semester residential art program for 50 high school seniors and juniors. As a visiting artist in residence I will lead an art project with the students and give a public lecture at CIA at Copia Theater in Napa. The lecture will be on Tuesday, October 22 at 7pm. I invite you all! (This is my first public artist lecture and I am very excited and nervous!) More info about it here.  Saturday, November 2, Comic Arts Brooklyn, at Pratt: the Dirt Palace is a featured guest and will be tabeling! GABY HURTADO-RAMOSIn August I went to Penland School of Craft and took a ceramics workshop making a life-size human bust and pillow. It was dreamy to be in the mountains and work with clay all day.
My screenprinted hankies are now up and for sale! I made these in July after noticing the flowers, planted and wild, that grow between fences, in cracked concrete, in front yards and abandoned lots in Tucson and Providence. I’m imagining the kinds of growing and resilience needed in this time of walls and borders. I’m visualizing the blooms and buds of unlocking what we’ve constructed as private property and arbitrary boundaries. I’m smelling burning rotting metal of walls long gone in the future....
dm me on the insta or visit my online store if you’d like a hanky. JOSEPHINE DEVANBUI'm extremely excited to announce that Look at Art. Get Paid. is partnering with the Massachusetts Cultural Council to expand the program across three art museums in MA over the next two years.
We’re putting out feelers for a new team member based in the Boston area who excels in arts management and administration.

The artworks push for transparency, access, and accountability.
CODY ROSS Cody has returned from “away” with a pile of new objects, including a functioning sewing machine, the newest issue of QUEER.ARCHIVE.WORK, several Visual AIDS releases, and a mug reading “Over the Hill.” He is already missing Daniella. Among many other people, he was able to visit a number of Dirt Palace members and member-adjacents through the grace of circumstance and intent: O. Horvath, Sara Lautman, Megan Manowicz, Arthur Katrina. He only listened to one podcast—a Wesleyan lecture by Fred Moten—succeeded by a cover of “Life is a Highway” played on repeat for the duration of his 3,000 mile trip.DANIELLA BEN-BASSAT This is Daniella's last month at the Dirt Palace and she is feeling overwhelmed with gratitude for the four (????) years she's spent here. Stay tuned for a massive parking lot / Club Darnell price chopper sale!!!Here is a picture of her at the beach taken not long after writing her own name in the sand.  Photo credit: Josephine. XANDER MARRO     Xander’s days these days: convincing herself that mitering joints on base cap moulding is a craft skill that she has almost mastered. Loving moulding. Wanting to put moulding on top of other moulding and then put ruffles on that. Luckily that’s sort of not too off brand at the Wedding Cake House? Here are some stills from a recent video project...A collaboration with her friend Daphne. People keep asking them if they will show it again or put it on-line, to which the answer’s are...yes! Ask us to show it somewhere, we want to screen it more! And yes! Someday we’ll put it on-line! They have more collaborations up their sleeves, but have been slowed down by work: X has too much work, D not enough work. Do you have a vacation for Xander? A job for Daphne? Kidding about the vacation for Xander, but not about the job for Daphne - part time, or one off gigs all of interest (writing/service/labor/whatever) and she’s usually available for sliding scale card readings (dialoghost@gmail.com). Ooooh...and actually X is going on “vacation” - by vacation she means talking to a class in Chicago & will be there Oct 8th-10th - hit her up if you’ll be there and want to say hi!
