Each week-long session will focus on a new imaginary land and feature artmaking that takes inspiration from the stories, settings, and the characters within! From the depths of Atlantis and the heights of Mount Olympus our campers will explore a world of imagination!
Each day campers will take four art classes: drawing/painting, mixed media, 3D sculpture and ceramics.

[more+]From monster movies to dystopian adventures to suspense thrillers, our summer film camps give students the chance to create original movie projects in a fun, collaborative environment.
Campers may be divided into smaller production teams to focus on different scenes, roles, or creative elements, allowing everyone to contribute in meaningful ways both on screen and behind the scenes. Content is always age-appropriate, and any horror or suspense elements are thoughtfully adjusted to match the comfort level and maturity of each group.
Each Film Camp culminates in a premiere screening for friends and family. Films are presented as polished, fully realized projects and celebrated in a supportive, professional environment.
No prior film experience is required—just creativity, curiosity, and a love of storytelling!
SESSION 1 | June 1–12 | Mornings 8:45-12:30Classic Gothic Horror (1930s–40s)
Step into the shadows and explore the origins of cinematic and theatrical horror in this two-week camp inspired by classic gothic monsters and timeless storytelling. Campers will study atmosphere, character, and dramatic tension while bringing iconic villains and tragic heroes to life through film and musical theatre.
MONSTERS OF THE SILVER SCREEN draws inspiration from Dracula, Frankenstein, and Creature from the Black Lagoon, Young Frankenstein, The Addams Family, Jekyll & Hyde, Sweeney Todd, and The Phantom of the Opera.
SESSION 2 | June 15–19 | Full Day 8:45-5:30Retro Sci-Fi Horror (1950s–60s)
⚠️ MLP’s ONLY FULL DAY session of the summer! ⚠️
This session dives into retro science fiction horror—where experiments go wrong, aliens invade, and identities are transformed. Inspired by mid-century sci-fi and campy classics, campers will explore bold storytelling, imaginative worlds, and the consequences of unchecked ambition.
ATOMIC AFTERMATH will pull from Little Shop of Horrors, The Fly, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Return to the Forbidden Planet, Bat Boy, Starmites, War of the Worlds, and more.
SESSION 3 | July 6–17 | Mornings 8:45-12:30Comedy & Meta Horror (1980s–90s)
This lighter, laugh-forward session explores horror through parody, self-awareness, and comedy. Campers will break the fourth wall, learn classic horror “rules,” and discover how exaggeration and humor can turn fear into fun.
SCREAM TEST will be inspired by Beetlejuice, Scooby-Doo, Gremlins, Goosebumps, Scream, Buffy, Evil Dead, Zombie Prom, Urinetown, and more.
SESSION 4 | July 20–31 | Mornings 8:45-12:30Dystopian & Information Age (2000s)
Our final session of the summer looks toward the future, exploring dystopian worlds shaped by technology, media, and societal control. Campers will investigate themes of identity, rebellion, fame, and hope while creating powerful film and musical theatre pieces.
DELETE BEFORE MIDNIGHT draws inspiration from Be More Chill, Hadestown, Ride the Cyclone, The Hunger Games (parody), The Matrix, Wall-E, The Maze Runner, Divergent, A Wrinkle in Time, and video game storytelling like Hello Neighbor and Piggy.

[more+]The Carrabelle History Museum is proud to present a featured exhibit, “Foundations of Freedom - Carrabelle’s Role in America’s Story” made possible by a grant from the Duke Energy Foundation. This exhibit will officially open on Saturday, July 4 and be on display until September 30, with sneak preview opportunities available on July 2 and 3. This unique exhibit, in honor of America’s 250th birthday, tells the story of Carrabelle’s history, independence, democratic participation, and civic identity through artifacts, photographs, and stories. Visitors can explore this exhibit on Wednesdays from 12 to 5 pm ET, Thursdays through Saturdays from 10 am to 5 pm ET, and Sundays from 12 to 5 pm ET. Admission is free, with donations warmly welcomed.
The exhibit is supported in part through the Duke Energy Foundation’s America250 grant initiative, which helps communities commemorate America’s upcoming 250th anniversary. Through this initiative, the Duke Energy Foundation is investing in projects that inspire civic pride, strengthen communities, and celebrate the nation’s history.
Through stories of Carrabelle’s mayors through time along with original artifacts, large-scale historic photographs and interpretive signage, the exhibit highlights how democracy functioned at the grassroots level and showcases civic leadership across generations. This project preserves and displays civic artifacts, provides free access to historical education for residents and visitors, and strengthens civic pride in Carrabelle’s role in America’s democratic journey.
Other highlights of the exhibit include original ballot boxes, paper ballots from 1909 and several periods of the 20th century, 1940s municipal court log books, city clerk journals, and founding documents. These artifacts reveal how citizens voted, resolved disputes, and organized local government, demonstrating how engaged citizens and elected officials helped shape the history of Carrabelle and Florida’s Forgotten Coast. Families and young visitors can also enjoy America250 activities, including patriotic coloring sheets and word searches.
Housed inside Carrabelle’s historic City Hall and using the very room where the justice of the peace, municipal court, city commission, and mayors once governed, the exhibit uses the building itself as both artifact and backdrop. The exhibit brings Carrabelle’s founding story and civic heritage to life inside the room where local democracy unfolded for decades.
Sponsored by the Duke Energy Foundation. The Carrabelle History Museum is located at 106 SE Avenue B, in historic downtown Carrabelle, FL. For more information, visit www.carrabellehistorymuseum.org or contact carrabellehistorymuseum@gmail.com or 850-697-2141. Funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council.

Special Exhibit: Commemorating D-Day

[more+]Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Carrabelle is presenting a special exhibit commemorating the anniversary of D-Day. This exhibit will be on display from Tuesday, June 2 until Saturday, July 18. The museum is open every Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm. There is no charge for admission, but donations are gladly accepted.
Camp Gordon Johnston was established in 1942 in Carrabelle to train entire infantry divisions, including the U. S. Army’s 4th Infantry Division and their support units, in amphibious warfare. That training and the men who received it would be put to the test on the heavily fortified beaches of Normandy, France on D-Day, June 6, 1944. The first amphibian infantry assault teams to arrive on French soil were from the 4th Infantry Division at Utah Beach. The D-Day invasion, the largest seaborne invasion in history, included over 100,000 Allied troops.
The exhibit will include personal papers, historic photos, and artifacts belonging to Capt. John E. Mellen, generously shared by his family. Capt. Mellen commanded the 818th Amphibious Truck Company and served with them from their training at Camp Gordon Johnston through the end of the war. The 818th trained at Camp Gordon Johnston in late 1943 and early 1944 before deploying to England in preparation for the Normandy invasion. On June 6, 1944, they landed on Utah Beach as part of the 1st Engineer Special Brigade, supporting the 4th Infantry Division. For this the 818th received a Meritorious Unit Citation and Croix de Guerre with palm and five members received Bronze Stars.
Added to the exhibit this year is the story of Victor Lucek of the 3891st Quartermaster Truck Company, who landed with his truck on Utah Beach on June 7, 1944, D+1. His experiences offer another viewpoint on the huge logistical effort and bravery required during the Normandy invasion. The exhibit also features interviews with members of the 4th Infantry Division and accounts from German defenders. These, along with other tributes to D-Day, offer a more complete perspective on this historic event. The museum’s three WWII military vehicles will also be displayed.
An Army training short film, captured by the U.S. Army Signal Corps, documents the D-Day preparations as they happened at Camp Gordon Johnston in March 1943. This video of amphibious assault training on Carrabelle Beach will play continuously during the day. These training exercises were to be the last training before troops shipped out to England.
Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum is located in Carrabelle, directly across from Carrabelle Public Beach Park at 1873 Hwy 98 West. For more information, contact Camp Gordon Johnston Museum at (850) 697-8575 or museum@campgordonjohnston.com. Funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council.

[more+]From spooky stories to sci-fi adventures to dramatic end-of-the-world storytelling, our musical theatre camps give students the chance to sing, act, move, and create in a supportive, welcoming environment.
Our camps are intentionally kept small, which can be a great fit for students building confidence, creative kids, and performers who thrive in smaller groups.
Campers may be split into smaller groups or ensembles to work on different musical numbers, scenes, or production elements, ensuring that every participant is engaged and challenged at an appropriate level. All material is carefully selected and adapted to be age-appropriate, with intensity adjusted to suit each group of campers.
Every Musical Theatre Camp concludes with a fully produced performance for friends and family on the final Friday at 4:30pm, complete with costumes, props, and sets—giving campers the thrill of performing in a polished, theatrical showcase.
Whether your child is new to musical theatre or already loves the stage, these camps provide a joyful, creative space to grow, perform, and shine.
SESSION 1 | June 1–12 | Afternoons 12:30-5:30Classic Gothic Horror (1930s–40s)
Step into the shadows and explore the origins of cinematic and theatrical horror in this two-week camp inspired by classic gothic monsters and timeless storytelling. Campers will study atmosphere, character, and dramatic tension while bringing iconic villains and tragic heroes to life through film and musical theatre.
BLOOD, BRAINS & BALLADS explores shows like Dracula, Young Frankenstein, The Addams Family, Jekyll & Hyde, Sweeney Todd, and The Phantom of the Opera.
SESSION 2 | June 15–19 | Full Day 8:45-5:30Retro Sci-Fi Horror (1950s–60s)
⚠️ MLP’s ONLY FULL DAY session of the summer! ⚠️
This one-week, full-day session dives into retro science fiction horror—where experiments go wrong, aliens invade, and identities are transformed. Inspired by mid-century sci-fi and campy classics, campers will explore bold storytelling, imaginative worlds, and the consequences of unchecked ambition.
STRANGEST THINGS pulls from Little Shop of Horrors, The Fly, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Return to the Forbidden Planet, Bat Boy, Starmites, War of the Worlds, and more.
SESSION 3 | July 6–17 | Afternoons 12:30-5:30Comedy & Meta Horror (1980s–90s)
This lighter, laugh-forward session explores horror through parody, self-awareness, and comedy. Campers will break the fourth wall, learn classic horror “rules,” and discover how exaggeration and humor can turn fear into fun.
CURTAIN CALL OF DOOM is inspired by Beetlejuice, Scooby-Doo, Gremlins, Goosebumps, Scream, Buffy, Evil Dead, Zombie Prom, Urinetown, and more.
SESSION 4 | July 20–31 | Afternoons 12:30-5:30Dystopian & Information Age (2000s)
Our final session of the summer looks toward the future, exploring dystopian worlds shaped by technology, media, and societal control. Campers will investigate themes of identity, rebellion, fame, and hope while creating powerful film and musical theatre pieces.
SONGS FROM THE END OF THE WORLD draws inspiration from Be More Chill, Hadestown, Ride the Cyclone, The Hunger Games: The Parody Musical, The Matrix, Wall-E, The Maze Runner, Divergent, A Wrinkle in Time, and video game storytelling like Hello Neighbor and Piggy.

[more+]Collective, conscious, community-based art, seen and showcased through calculated collectivity, demonstration, and execution, punctuates its presence here at 621, with a showcase amongst showcases. This month, Lily Lawson, leaves a legacy of continuum, displaying a diverse diaspora of present and pleasant portraits. Portrayed within such beautiful artworks, are the lives, times, and inner minds of a variety of viewpoints and individuals across Tallahassee. Opportunity, is a word used to describe such a project, with Lily's core conceit, seeped and soaked in themes and topics of access and accessibility, proves to be yet another artistic endeavor worthy of wondrous and wonderful appreciation. Accessible appreciation, yet another set of words, born from a desire to hear the unheard, and see the unseen; the lives and legacies of people, with such prosperous aspirations hallmarked by a history of artistry, within Tallahassee. Variety, therefore, is what has been displayed, portrayed, and engaged; nothing short poignant plurality.
Alas, with this project, Lily hopes to start a living legacy of artistry, with each showcase, hosted by 621, serving as a community-centered concentration of dedication, towards accessible artistic proliferation.
Come and see, the birth of a lasting legacy, of community, here at the 621 Gallery.

[more+]A lost world, untapped and untethered by the machinations of man, populated by a plurality of vast and vividly compiled creatures, has taken hold, here at 621. A dimension of diaspora, conceptualized as a glimpse into a landscape unknown, unseen, yet intensely, immensely real. Birthed from the brilliantly beastly and beautiful mindscape of Patrick Greene, a tantamountly terrible, yet truly terrific masterclass of monsterized oddities await, with creatures featured with compiled craftsmanship, giving way towards a stunning symphony of strangeness. Curious cultivation, and a dedication to diverse, deviant displays, are the core of this showcase, with such stunning animalities promoting an absolute execution of everpresent excellence.
“A museum of monstrosities” is what some of the uninformed would call it, for such entities and beings though such an antiquated term and amorphous terms does little in describing the status of such a showcase. The fearsome and fantastic flora and fauna are not mere monsters, but carefully crafted, wild and wondrous organisms, made, and managed, with such meticulously majestic grace and gratefulness. Alas, such beings deserve to be cared for, and considered, with a cautiously curious gaze.
WIth this exhibit, Patrick Greene, certified expert of the estranged, aims to attract others to the vividity of worlds unseen, unknown, and frighteningly fascinating.
Come and see, the precarious presence of an unseen reality, here at the 621 Gallery.

Using macro photography of my personal rock collection as a starting point, Carter magnify details that often go unnoticed. When viewed up close, these ordinary objects become extraordinary landscapes filled with color, texture, movement, and mystery. Carter's paintings are not intended to document rocks as they are, but to reveal the worlds that exist within them.

Each week-long session will focus on a new imaginary land and feature artmaking that takes inspiration from the stories, settings, and the characters within! From the depths of Atlantis and the heights of Mount Olympus our campers will explore a world of imagination!
Each day campers will take four art classes: drawing/painting, mixed media, 3D sculpture and ceramics. Through these classes campers learn about art from around the world, experience new artmaking approaches and techniques, and make a series of artworks to take home and enjoy at the end of each session.
Each Friday, the session will feature an Arty Party (12:45PM to 1:30PM). During the Arty Party, campers may invite their families into the studios to celebrate and view the artwork made during the session, and enjoy snacks, drinks, and fun!

[more+]From monster movies to dystopian adventures to suspense thrillers, our summer film camps give students the chance to create original movie projects in a fun, collaborative environment.
Campers may be divided into smaller production teams to focus on different scenes, roles, or creative elements, allowing everyone to contribute in meaningful ways both on screen and behind the scenes. Content is always age-appropriate, and any horror or suspense elements are thoughtfully adjusted to match the comfort level and maturity of each group.
Each Film Camp culminates in a premiere screening for friends and family. Films are presented as polished, fully realized projects and celebrated in a supportive, professional environment.
No prior film experience is required—just creativity, curiosity, and a love of storytelling!
SESSION 1 | June 1–12 | Mornings 8:45-12:30Classic Gothic Horror (1930s–40s)
Step into the shadows and explore the origins of cinematic and theatrical horror in this two-week camp inspired by classic gothic monsters and timeless storytelling. Campers will study atmosphere, character, and dramatic tension while bringing iconic villains and tragic heroes to life through film and musical theatre.
MONSTERS OF THE SILVER SCREEN draws inspiration from Dracula, Frankenstein, and Creature from the Black Lagoon, Young Frankenstein, The Addams Family, Jekyll & Hyde, Sweeney Todd, and The Phantom of the Opera.
SESSION 2 | June 15–19 | Full Day 8:45-5:30Retro Sci-Fi Horror (1950s–60s)
⚠️ MLP’s ONLY FULL DAY session of the summer! ⚠️
This session dives into retro science fiction horror—where experiments go wrong, aliens invade, and identities are transformed. Inspired by mid-century sci-fi and campy classics, campers will explore bold storytelling, imaginative worlds, and the consequences of unchecked ambition.
ATOMIC AFTERMATH will pull from Little Shop of Horrors, The Fly, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Return to the Forbidden Planet, Bat Boy, Starmites, War of the Worlds, and more.
SESSION 3 | July 6–17 | Mornings 8:45-12:30Comedy & Meta Horror (1980s–90s)
This lighter, laugh-forward session explores horror through parody, self-awareness, and comedy. Campers will break the fourth wall, learn classic horror “rules,” and discover how exaggeration and humor can turn fear into fun.
SCREAM TEST will be inspired by Beetlejuice, Scooby-Doo, Gremlins, Goosebumps, Scream, Buffy, Evil Dead, Zombie Prom, Urinetown, and more.
SESSION 4 | July 20–31 | Mornings 8:45-12:30Dystopian & Information Age (2000s)
Our final session of the summer looks toward the future, exploring dystopian worlds shaped by technology, media, and societal control. Campers will investigate themes of identity, rebellion, fame, and hope while creating powerful film and musical theatre pieces.
DELETE BEFORE MIDNIGHT draws inspiration from Be More Chill, Hadestown, Ride the Cyclone, The Hunger Games (parody), The Matrix, Wall-E, The Maze Runner, Divergent, A Wrinkle in Time, and video game storytelling like Hello Neighbor and Piggy.

[more+]The Carrabelle History Museum is proud to present a featured exhibit, “Foundations of Freedom - Carrabelle’s Role in America’s Story” made possible by a grant from the Duke Energy Foundation. This exhibit will officially open on Saturday, July 4 and be on display until September 30, with sneak preview opportunities available on July 2 and 3. This unique exhibit, in honor of America’s 250th birthday, tells the story of Carrabelle’s history, independence, democratic participation, and civic identity through artifacts, photographs, and stories. Visitors can explore this exhibit on Wednesdays from 12 to 5 pm ET, Thursdays through Saturdays from 10 am to 5 pm ET, and Sundays from 12 to 5 pm ET. Admission is free, with donations warmly welcomed.
The exhibit is supported in part through the Duke Energy Foundation’s America250 grant initiative, which helps communities commemorate America’s upcoming 250th anniversary. Through this initiative, the Duke Energy Foundation is investing in projects that inspire civic pride, strengthen communities, and celebrate the nation’s history.
Through stories of Carrabelle’s mayors through time along with original artifacts, large-scale historic photographs and interpretive signage, the exhibit highlights how democracy functioned at the grassroots level and showcases civic leadership across generations. This project preserves and displays civic artifacts, provides free access to historical education for residents and visitors, and strengthens civic pride in Carrabelle’s role in America’s democratic journey.
Other highlights of the exhibit include original ballot boxes, paper ballots from 1909 and several periods of the 20th century, 1940s municipal court log books, city clerk journals, and founding documents. These artifacts reveal how citizens voted, resolved disputes, and organized local government, demonstrating how engaged citizens and elected officials helped shape the history of Carrabelle and Florida’s Forgotten Coast. Families and young visitors can also enjoy America250 activities, including patriotic coloring sheets and word searches.
Housed inside Carrabelle’s historic City Hall and using the very room where the justice of the peace, municipal court, city commission, and mayors once governed, the exhibit uses the building itself as both artifact and backdrop. The exhibit brings Carrabelle’s founding story and civic heritage to life inside the room where local democracy unfolded for decades.
Sponsored by the Duke Energy Foundation. The Carrabelle History Museum is located at 106 SE Avenue B, in historic downtown Carrabelle, FL. For more information, visit www.carrabellehistorymuseum.org or contact carrabellehistorymuseum@gmail.com or 850-697-2141. Funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council.

[more+]Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum in Carrabelle is presenting a special exhibit commemorating the anniversary of D-Day. This exhibit will be on display from Tuesday, June 2 until Saturday, July 18. The museum is open every Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm. There is no charge for admission, but donations are gladly accepted.
Camp Gordon Johnston was established in 1942 in Carrabelle to train entire infantry divisions, including the U. S. Army’s 4th Infantry Division and their support units, in amphibious warfare. That training and the men who received it would be put to the test on the heavily fortified beaches of Normandy, France on D-Day, June 6, 1944. The first amphibian infantry assault teams to arrive on French soil were from the 4th Infantry Division at Utah Beach. The D-Day invasion, the largest seaborne invasion in history, included over 100,000 Allied troops.
The exhibit will include personal papers, historic photos, and artifacts belonging to Capt. John E. Mellen, generously shared by his family. Capt. Mellen commanded the 818th Amphibious Truck Company and served with them from their training at Camp Gordon Johnston through the end of the war. The 818th trained at Camp Gordon Johnston in late 1943 and early 1944 before deploying to England in preparation for the Normandy invasion. On June 6, 1944, they landed on Utah Beach as part of the 1st Engineer Special Brigade, supporting the 4th Infantry Division. For this the 818th received a Meritorious Unit Citation and Croix de Guerre with palm and five members received Bronze Stars.
Added to the exhibit this year is the story of Victor Lucek of the 3891st Quartermaster Truck Company, who landed with his truck on Utah Beach on June 7, 1944, D+1. His experiences offer another viewpoint on the huge logistical effort and bravery required during the Normandy invasion. The exhibit also features interviews with members of the 4th Infantry Division and accounts from German defenders. These, along with other tributes to D-Day, offer a more complete perspective on this historic event. The museum’s three WWII military vehicles will also be displayed.
An Army training short film, captured by the U.S. Army Signal Corps, documents the D-Day preparations as they happened at Camp Gordon Johnston in March 1943. This video of amphibious assault training on Carrabelle Beach will play continuously during the day. These training exercises were to be the last training before troops shipped out to England.
Camp Gordon Johnston WWII Museum is located in Carrabelle, directly across from Carrabelle Public Beach Park at 1873 Hwy 98 West. For more information, contact Camp Gordon Johnston Museum at (850) 697-8575 or museum@campgordonjohnston.com. Funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council.

[more+]From spooky stories to sci-fi adventures to dramatic end-of-the-world storytelling, our musical theatre camps give students the chance to sing, act, move, and create in a supportive, welcoming environment.
Our camps are intentionally kept small, which can be a great fit for students building confidence, creative kids, and performers who thrive in smaller groups.
Campers may be split into smaller groups or ensembles to work on different musical numbers, scenes, or production elements, ensuring that every participant is engaged and challenged at an appropriate level. All material is carefully selected and adapted to be age-appropriate, with intensity adjusted to suit each group of campers.
Every Musical Theatre Camp concludes with a fully produced performance for friends and family on the final Friday at 4:30pm, complete with costumes, props, and sets—giving campers the thrill of performing in a polished, theatrical showcase.
Whether your child is new to musical theatre or already loves the stage, these camps provide a joyful, creative space to grow, perform, and shine.
SESSION 1 | June 1–12 | Afternoons 12:30-5:30Classic Gothic Horror (1930s–40s)
Step into the shadows and explore the origins of cinematic and theatrical horror in this two-week camp inspired by classic gothic monsters and timeless storytelling. Campers will study atmosphere, character, and dramatic tension while bringing iconic villains and tragic heroes to life through film and musical theatre.
BLOOD, BRAINS & BALLADS explores shows like Dracula, Young Frankenstein, The Addams Family, Jekyll & Hyde, Sweeney Todd, and The Phantom of the Opera.
SESSION 2 | June 15–19 | Full Day 8:45-5:30Retro Sci-Fi Horror (1950s–60s)
⚠️ MLP’s ONLY FULL DAY session of the summer! ⚠️
This one-week, full-day session dives into retro science fiction horror—where experiments go wrong, aliens invade, and identities are transformed. Inspired by mid-century sci-fi and campy classics, campers will explore bold storytelling, imaginative worlds, and the consequences of unchecked ambition.
STRANGEST THINGS pulls from Little Shop of Horrors, The Fly, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Return to the Forbidden Planet, Bat Boy, Starmites, War of the Worlds, and more.
SESSION 3 | July 6–17 | Afternoons 12:30-5:30Comedy & Meta Horror (1980s–90s)
This lighter, laugh-forward session explores horror through parody, self-awareness, and comedy. Campers will break the fourth wall, learn classic horror “rules,” and discover how exaggeration and humor can turn fear into fun.
CURTAIN CALL OF DOOM is inspired by Beetlejuice, Scooby-Doo, Gremlins, Goosebumps, Scream, Buffy, Evil Dead, Zombie Prom, Urinetown, and more.
SESSION 4 | July 20–31 | Afternoons 12:30-5:30Dystopian & Information Age (2000s)
Our final session of the summer looks toward the future, exploring dystopian worlds shaped by technology, media, and societal control. Campers will investigate themes of identity, rebellion, fame, and hope while creating powerful film and musical theatre pieces.
SONGS FROM THE END OF THE WORLD draws inspiration from Be More Chill, Hadestown, Ride the Cyclone, The Hunger Games: The Parody Musical, The Matrix, Wall-E, The Maze Runner, Divergent, A Wrinkle in Time, and video game storytelling like Hello Neighbor and Piggy.

[more+]Collective, conscious, community-based art, seen and showcased through calculated collectivity, demonstration, and execution, punctuates its presence here at 621, with a showcase amongst showcases. This month, Lily Lawson, leaves a legacy of continuum, displaying a diverse diaspora of present and pleasant portraits. Portrayed within such beautiful artworks, are the lives, times, and inner minds of a variety of viewpoints and individuals across Tallahassee. Opportunity, is a word used to describe such a project, with Lily's core conceit, seeped and soaked in themes and topics of access and accessibility, proves to be yet another artistic endeavor worthy of wondrous and wonderful appreciation. Accessible appreciation, yet another set of words, born from a desire to hear the unheard, and see the unseen; the lives and legacies of people, with such prosperous aspirations hallmarked by a history of artistry, within Tallahassee. Variety, therefore, is what has been displayed, portrayed, and engaged; nothing short poignant plurality.
Alas, with this project, Lily hopes to start a living legacy of artistry, with each showcase, hosted by 621, serving as a community-centered concentration of dedication, towards accessible artistic proliferation.
Come and see, the birth of a lasting legacy, of community, here at the 621 Gallery.

[more+]A lost world, untapped and untethered by the machinations of man, populated by a plurality of vast and vividly compiled creatures, has taken hold, here at 621. A dimension of diaspora, conceptualized as a glimpse into a landscape unknown, unseen, yet intensely, immensely real. Birthed from the brilliantly beastly and beautiful mindscape of Patrick Greene, a tantamountly terrible, yet truly terrific masterclass of monsterized oddities await, with creatures featured with compiled craftsmanship, giving way towards a stunning symphony of strangeness. Curious cultivation, and a dedication to diverse, deviant displays, are the core of this showcase, with such stunning animalities promoting an absolute execution of everpresent excellence.
“A museum of monstrosities” is what some of the uninformed would call it, for such entities and beings though such an antiquated term and amorphous terms does little in describing the status of such a showcase. The fearsome and fantastic flora and fauna are not mere monsters, but carefully crafted, wild and wondrous organisms, made, and managed, with such meticulously majestic grace and gratefulness. Alas, such beings deserve to be cared for, and considered, with a cautiously curious gaze.
WIth this exhibit, Patrick Greene, certified expert of the estranged, aims to attract others to the vividity of worlds unseen, unknown, and frighteningly fascinating.
Come and see, the precarious presence of an unseen reality, here at the 621 Gallery.

Using macro photography of my personal rock collection as a starting point, Carter magnify details that often go unnoticed. When viewed up close, these ordinary objects become extraordinary landscapes filled with color, texture, movement, and mystery. Carter's paintings are not intended to document rocks as they are, but to reveal the worlds that exist within them.
