Bring a date and bid on some art to support NYC's hardest working art collective. We will honor Harriet Taub of Materials for the Arts, and Swoon, for the enormous impact their work has had on Flux Factory and the greater cultural sphere.
The totes were silk screened at Flux Factory, and each has a unique hand-sewn detail: an earring that dangles from the lobe of a gender neutral and dentally-challenged Fluxer.
Flux Factory is thrilled to announce that we have been selected to receive program support from The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, over two years, in the amount of $60,000!

UK-based collective Reactor will present a new work over four weekends at Flux Factory through our Curatorial Carte Blanche program. Rather than a pre-determined, structured methodology – Reactor’s usual way of working - Log!c ?stem will use improvisation as a form of anti-logic. Improvisation cannot be rehearsed, but the Log!c ?stem will create the rules of the game, so that Reactor can actively train to play.
Date + time: Wednesday, October 30th, 6pm-9pm A portal has opened at Flux Factory, allowing beings from another world to slip through, to explore and extract all that the city has to offer. Join us for this one-night event!
