Beechwood Arts in the News
Beechwood Wins Award at 2017 Maker Faire
Beechwood Arts & Innovation had a booth at the Westport Maker Faire 2017. where we showed the Visual art work from our Transformed Arts Immersion Salon. For the salon, artists transformed their own work or work of another artist and we captured that transformation and embedded a video of it into the artwork. Using their phones, viewers were able to look at the artwork through their phones and see the transformation happen before their eyes! This is in keeping with Beechwood's mission which is in part to use technology to create deeper connections between the audience, artists and the creative process.
