Denise,

I'll certainly swing by the niw Art Lab on Saturday -- its about something
that's intrigued me since my WebStudio days!

If you (and your friends) have a chance, swing by my art reception the night
before.  More info at:

Thanks,

  The Bass Museum of Art invites you to the opening of the niw Art Lab, the
first community-access multimedia center in Miami Beach.

  At this singular event, you can get a preview of niw Art Lab resources and
classes, eat ice cream, try out the new Macintosh G4 Powerbooks, listen to
music, participate in mini-workshops, witness a special guest appearance by
mariachis, mingle, and finally, be among the first to register to use the
lab during drop-in Open Studio hours --- free for Miami Beach residents, and
$10 yearly for others.

  The niw Art Lab was founded as part of new information workshop (niw), a
new initiative at the Bass created to promote artmaking, education and
exchange in the community by using new media and communication technologies
as tools. It is funded by grants from the John S. and James L. Knight
Foundation, the Miami-Dade County Department of Cultural Affairs, and
Friends of the Bass Museum, Inc.

exhibitions and visual arts in general; a redeveloped website set to launch
in May; the North Beach/Homestead Project, which will link artists and high
school students through a collaborative web-based documentary project; and
niw Residents, a new media artists-in-residence program to begin in 2002.
