So in our drawing class we traveled to a place here in Greensboro called Elsewhere. At first we were all a little freaked out by the amount of junk, dust and old dolls found within Elsewhere. We soon learned that Elsewhere is a museum and that all of the junk, and misc. items once belonged to perhaps the biggest pack rat of all time. An older woman loved to collect "things" off all sorts..from dolls to fabrics, from records to car speakers, you'll find it all. Her grandson, with the help of others turned grandma's messy space in to what is now a place for travelers to visit, an artist spot, and an interactive museum that welcomes people to play and move things around. Our assignment was to first choose different areas, or items that we would like to draw. Then as a class we taped off the 1st floor and were each designated an area to draw. After visiting Elsewhere a few times it became less creepy and more a cool place to go and draw. There's one thing for sure, you won't ever run out of items to draw!!
