Craft Punk 3 Raises $3000 for OFFCenter! OMG!

After hearing that OFFCenter Arts was going to be the beneficiary of Craft Punk 3 for the second time this year we felt a little numb from the remarkable generosity and support shown towards OFFCenter and the many artists who use and benefit from our free community studio. We were fascinated by the passion and creativity of the Craft Punk artists and send our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who participated in the event at the Launch Pad on Friday, August 13th. Our special thanks goes out to Crystal Sims of Evolution Body Piercing and her capable team whose vision and dedication made this year's Craft Punk event a smashing success!!

A Shout Out toTerry Begay



Terry epitomizes the spirit of OFFCenter's community art studio. Passionate and capable, friendly and funny, Terry alternates as a teacher and student who constantly experiments in his work blending traditional and modern into his unique artistic expressions. Hungry to learn and eager to share his knowledge, Terry is a positive influence on every artist in the studio. Today we honor Terry's acceptance into the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe where Terry will pursue his artistic development through higher education.
