Back before the dawn of existence of everything, when the compound was no more than a couple of walls a floor and a ceiling, something was found in the dusty old warehouse that is now our home.
Toys.
You see, once, long long ago, 319 N. 11th st. was home to a toy factory. Three blocks north, a toy factory, a few blocks over, a toy factory. The area, formally known as “trestle town”, was home to a slew of the same, stuffing teddy bears, and pouring molds.
Tomorrow night, in homage to what was before, Compound Warehaus presents you with “Toy Factory” a group show featuring sculptures, paintings, drawings, and prints by some fantastic artists and wonderful people. The weather is warming, the weekend is starting, and we’ll be there to make sure you start it off proper.
Stop by, take a peak, turn into a child, give people hugs, hold some hands, drink some drinks, and join us.
