I am an ARTIST, called “FEW”, or “the blue wizard”, by close art friends. Nice going “FAAC”, it’s cool to see this is really happening along the street I grew up on, in Fishtown. From 1957 to 1967, I lived at 1863 Frankford Ave. I was a foster kid, born in 1953 at Philadelphia General Hospital, and was living with a Polish Foster Family who sent me to St. Laurentius Catholic Grade School. So I was there from KG – 8th grade ( Graduation class – 1967). I always wanted to be an artist, because of growing up in Fishtown was so cool, and inspiring. I thought as a kid, someday it would become an Art Meca because, I dreamt it would as a kid. I moved to Wissinoming, in 1967, and have been here ever since. With a two year enlistment as a U.S.Marine, ( 1971-1973). But, later in life when I was rasing my Family, I always would ride through the old neighborhood to see what had changed. Recently, I was just blown away with your Web Page. And realized I got my wish !!! An Arts Corridor, WOW !!! I have to connect with this somehow, ’cause life is flying by !!! It’s now or never. So if anyone can help this old time “Fishtown Geezer” named “FEW”, let me know !!! I would apprecaiate any help I can get. I’m on Social Security, so I have the time, and I have my work, just collecting dust. There is much more to my life story, but I’m ranbling on enough already ! So “Happy Trails” to you, until we E-mail again !!! …Yours Truly, FEW

We are a fairly new arts org and are looking for a home in the north east. We would like to partner with any orgs that are doing art work in the north east. We support arts in education and community art projects.
