Wait! No it doesn’t! This is awesome! Aaron Rose is doing his teen workshop again! Man, I sure wish I was still a teenager discovering the world and myself, having feelings I don’t understand, growing hair in weird places, collecting towels under my bed…
According to the ‘About’ page on the website, Make Something School “BEGAN IN 2008 AS A SERIES OF YOUTH CREATIVE WORKSHOPS HELD IN NEW YORK, LOS ANGELES, SAN FRANCISCO, MIAMI AND TOKYO. WORKING WITH PUBLIC SCHOOL ART PROGRAMS AND YOUTH MENTORING ORGANIZATIONS, THE GOAL OF MAKE SOMETHING!! IS TO PARTNER WORLD-RENOWNED CREATIVE PERSONALITIES WITH YOUNG ASPIRING ARTISTS WITH THE INTENTION OF GIVING HANDS-ON PRACTICAL SKILLS. OUR FOCUS IS ON CONNECTING THE IDEAS BEHIND DIY (DO-IT-YOURSELF) CREATIVITY WITH THE ARTISTS OF TOMORROW INCORPORATING ELEMENTS OF ART, DESIGN, MUSIC, FASHION AND FILM INTO OUR PROGRAMS. SINCE ITS INCEPTION, OVER 2,000 HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS HAVE NOW TAKEN PART IN MAKE SOMETHING!! WORKSHOPS. WE HAVE PLANS TO OPEN A LOS ANGELES-BASED PERMANENT CREATIVE SCHOOLHOUSE IN THE NEAR FUTURE.”
Awesome, no? And the teachers this year are ridiculous: Tommy Guerrero, Mike Mills, Ed Templeton, KAWS, Jesse Spears…. etc, etc,. Stop picking your face and check it out!

Poor old Johnny Thunders; wound up dead under a coffee table in a New Orleans hotel; bent up like a pretzel, they say. Sad. Had this song in my head this morning. So good.
Anyway, that’s it for Thursday. Got things to see and people to do. Swear there’s a new issue coming out soon. We’re not just a blog these days. Watch this space. Next issue is killer, and it’s in the pipeline, like it or not.
