Arts Street Textile Studio: handmade with the homeless invites you to join us on Friday August 26th for our last 4th Friday Reception at 706 South Street!  Where I Find Home features gorgeous photographs by Mary Johnson, a Printmaker and Photographer studying at Temple's Tyler School of the Arts. Mary's hauntingly beautiful photographs are of Philadelphia's hidden places - sites where some of our homeless friends find solace. The physical component that ties her photographs together is the nature of the abandoned and decrepit. Some locations are public, some are private, most are unknown. Some are in plain sight to be passed by and ignored, and some are hidden for only the adventurous to discover. Each location, though lonely and unused, carries a story that can only be pieced together by what remains on the inside. Also, we are building a city out of cardboard! Please come to help us by adding a row-home, skyscraper, school, factory or cottage!
