As 2014 winds down, we are both reflecting on what a fantastic first year TYPOLOGY has had in its home at Artscape Youngplace, and anticipating the exciting exhibitions and initiatives we’ve got planned for 2015. But before we get to our updates and invites, we’d first like to thank every one of our subscribers and followers for your continued interest, participation, and support. As the project space learns and grows, there’s much for our audiences to look forward to, including better and more streamlined communications, online shopping and submissions, and other opportunities to participate from near and far. Thanks for staying with us!

FINAL HOURS of ELEMENTAL
This week is your last chance to see Elemental | Book Works by Cathryn Miller. The show has gotten a great response from visitors, who have enjoyed puzzling over Miller’s wall-based composition, Synesthesia, and submitting wishes in support of her labyrinthine public art project. TYPOLOGY will have slightly revised hours this week to coincide with AYP Hallway Galleries opening on Friday — instead of our usual Thursday evening hours we’ll be open extended hours on Friday, from 12–8 pm. Sunday, December 14 from 12–5 pm will be the final day of the exhibition.
