whats-happening-flyer-webWhat’s happenin’ is that we’ve teamed up with none other than TAWA and Mel Leipzig to launch an art show aimed at exhibiting up-and-coming artists from central NJ. Here at SAGE we were all young, struggling artists once.. except for Will “I was a prodigy” Kasso.. So its time to go back to our roots and help other emerging artists get exposure and recognition. You can help by coming out to show your support. The opening will be on June 14th from 6-10. Read more about it here »

gwg6-web-snippetIt’s been another month and we’re keepin it rolling. SHUT THE  F**K UP AND PAINT was a lot of fun. It was by far the weirdest show so far. The best part was we finally we had some hippies passed out on the garden lawn.. so I know the vision is really coming to light.. the prophecy is being fulfilled. That’s why I need you to come out and help us finish this garden.. cause I’m telling you the hippies are coming. I met another one out there yesterday..

Gardening with Gandhi #6 will be on Saturday, June 1st. Come check it out. Read more about it here »

Thanks for the Grass

Published in The Gandhi Garden on May 5, 2013

dblockgrassThere’s Derrick watering our new grass. We call him D Block. Check out that sculpture behind him.. someone just happened to bring by a sculpture of a giant letter D on a block. The guy who brought it didn’t even know about Derrick. Coincidence? I don’t know.. Gandhi’s face is always looking over that garden like he’s pulling all the strings. You think that’s funny Gandhi? Where’s my Digital Graham sculpture, huh? Just kidding, I love you Gandhi.

We want to thank everyone for their donations, which helped us get this field of grass started. With the money, we’ve also been able to buy some cool climbing vines for Wills’ bike trellis. A new stage is in the works too. Stay in touch.. we’ll have concerts and events in the garden soon. Check out our facebook page for more updates.

Soul of the Message on April 12th

Published in Uncategorized on April 2, 2013

sotm-flyer-front-webIts hard to believe its been almost a month since Hit the Deck.. but it has, so we’re on to the next show. This month we’re bringing it back to the essentials with Soul of the Message. This will the third year in a row SAGE has put on this event. Its no ordinary show. See, a few years ago when S.A.G.E. began, the letters stood for Styles Advancing Graffiti’s Evolution. Will Kasso and the crew created SAGE because they wanted to raise the bar on street art. They wanted to create a new, conscious art form with all the style and refinement of fine art- but born and raised on the streets. That’s what Soul of the Message is about.. its art on a higher vibration. Come feel it on April 12th. Read the details here »
