About

Slap Dash is a monthly series that brings together different art forms for a semi-cohesive mixed-media extravaganza. If you make art, and you want to show it off, contact us.

Slap Dash takes place on the fourth Saturday of each month @ LaunchPad, a community art space in Crown Heights, Brooklyn. All events are FREE to the public and all ages.

Saturday, April 28th - Audio/Visual @ 8pm


:: Silent Drape Runners and Blair Neal
:::: Patrick Higgins: Bachanalia. and Jan Svankmajer
:::::: Alec Betterly live score for Pee Wee's Playhouse

This might be the closest that Slap Dash ever comes to putting on a concert, but it's still gonna be arty as all-get-out! Rather than just playing music, while videos play in the background, each group will present a piece that was specifically developed for the videos that they've selected - to create a true audio/visual experience.

We'll also be debuting a new art show featuring pieces insipired by songs. Featuring paintings, drawings, photos and digital art by CM Duffy, Ellen LaVeyra, Tom Pitilli, Greg Hedderman, Jess Ruliffson, Mike Freiheit and more!

Free home brewed beer by Honest Pete.

Saturday, May 26th - Old Timey Slap Dash @ 8pm


:: CARTOONS Tom Stathes
:::: MUSIC Pocatello
:::::: FILM Movie Mike presents classics films
:::::::: DIARY Ellen LaVeyra presents excerpts her Great-Grandmother's 1920s diary
:::::::::: GRAMOPHONE DJ Joel Schlemowitz

This may, we're going old school! Get psyched, and prepare your costume for an old timey good time with Slap Dash.
