DELHI — Bushel invites the community to attend a 10th-anniversary party and fundraiser on Sunday, December 14, 2–6 pm to help celebrate a decade of Bushel and its multitude of programming. The event takes place at Bushel, 106 Main Street, Delhi. All are welcome; free to attend.
The party will be an opening reception for “Bushel Turns Ten!,” a sprawling exhibition of collage art made by 75+ artists, poets, and friends who have presented their work at Bushel over the past ten years. Come to view and buy collages, make your own in the collage corner, and mingle, with refreshments throughout, live music at 4 pm, and a raffle drawing at 5 pm.
Since its founding in 2015, Bushel has held over 60 exhibitions and hosted more than 2,000 events. “That’s a lot to celebrate!” says Bushel collective member Mina Takahashi. “We are so grateful to all 75+ artists and members of the Bushel community for participating in the collage extravaganza, which will serve as a fundraiser to support some much-needed improvements to our space and tech. We love that we’ve managed to keep things going as a volunteer-run, small-by-design collective, and we hope to do that for the next however many years.”
The collage exhibition will fill the entire space and feature 2D and 3D collage works by Bushel collective members and artists such as Holly Anderson, Richard Barlow, Alina Bliumis, kelli cain, Frank Chang, Brian Crabtree, Alexandra Egan, Elana Herzog, Mala Iqbal, Emily Joyce, Saira McLaren, Alan Powell, Kamilla Talbot, Mercedes Teixido, and Trevor Wilson, to name just a fraction of the participants. Inspired attendees are welcome to make a collage of their own at the Bushel Collage Corner.
The event will feature live music at 4pm with sets by Shane Perry (singer/guitar), Amy Melson (singer/banjo), Marcus A DJ (turntables), and special guest musicians. At 5 pm, there will be a raffle drawing with prizes donated by so many Bushel friends and neighbors including Tay Tea, Good Cheap Food, Steady Slope Fields & Forest, Round Top Paper, Best Made Co., Mutsi Café, The Stonehouse, This & That, luck dragon, and others.
