    • SANDLOT COLISEUM / CAMP DESIGN BUILD ADVENTURE

    • Sunday, I was lucky to be at the “first ‘throw” at the new East Side Play.

       

      East Side Play is the first effort by Marfa’s Dersu Collective
      to use proceeds from their group art shows to develop and
      fund small community projects .  And in the last two weeks, they used
      some of their proceeds to clear, mow, fence the new sandlot Coliseum .

       

      And Sunday, Soccer Balls and Footballs were flying,

       

      This summer – at the first ever CAMP DESIGN BUILD ADVENTURE,
      workshop participants will design
