Come build a cardboard world with us! On Jun. 5, the Box Project returns to the Asian Art Museum. Developed by artist Eliza Gregory, this workshop invites parents and children to alter and play with reused cardboard boxes as they would at home, but on an unusually grand scale. Be sure to stick around for the Moment of Destruction — a chance to summon your inner beast and destroy the projects that were built during the day.
Professional parenting educator Nancy Gapasin Gnass curates information about parenting and creativity for participants to take home, and, along with Gregory, is on hand to answer questions and provide an intellectual framework for the experience.
The Box Project celebrates acts of creativity that take place in the home by temporarily placing them in a museum context to catalyze a conversation about creativity, parenting and the gallery space as a creative hub. The project asks: Can we teach creativity? What does that look like? When is parenting itself fundamentally about creativity? How can we become better parents by acknowledging those times? And how can the museum support families in this endeavor? For more information, visit www.theboxproject.org.

photos of various stages of the manufacture of a trinket box by S3 Craft and Design pupils at Hawick High School
So I finally finished a batch of mosaics. Have a few more that should be ready soon. I always wait for the grout to set for a couple of days before I put a clear coat on them. This is a trinket box.
Each year, Gallery Route One in Point Reyes invites over a hundred artists to create unique works of art using a wooden box.
Here are the inspiring artworks they created this year: they range in style from whimsical to poignant and thought-provoking. These photos were taken on closing day, when the gallery organized a live auction for each of this year’s 150 boxes. The proceeds support the gallery’s exhibits and community programs.
Two of the boxes were created by members of our art community: Howard Rheingold (a.k.a. Dr. Rindbrain) contributed an illuminated box called ‘Magical’, while Geo Monley and Meryl Rubenstein made ‘Les Puzzles.’
Members of ‘Pataphysical Studios came to cheer for their peers -- Dr. Really was the highest bidder for Dr. Rindbrain’s piece, which was thus kept in the family. After the show, we all went to Stellina to celebrate over a nice dinner.

Not toooo much done yet, but I've got here: 1 spinning bin, 1 yarn bin, 8 smaller boxes of books and yarn, 1 coffee grinder and 1 air filter. Long way to go.
These boxes all have stories. The large one was my mother's maternal grandmother's sewing box, she gave it to my mother when she came from the UK to NZ.
The painted box was made by a Japanese prisoner of war in NZ and given by my Poppa to my Grandmother. The little box I bought while travelling in Morocco.
The photo is of my maternal grandmother, who I look very much like. The fan is from my great aunt who I was very fond of and the opera glasses were from my father's mother, who I am named after and never met.
This is my sweet little boy, Sampson. He's not the brightest crayon in the box lol, but what he lacks in brain power he makes up for in love. :) And playfulness! lol
i made this the other day (with some help) and thought it was quit cool. i hope to get good results out of it.
All the Domos were of course eager to meet Sunny and introduce themselves. Before they all bombarded him Domo and Sherbet managed to do some domocrowd control and get them to line up.
This was actually a lighting test for a studio shoot with a little girl. I liked what I was seeing through the viewfinder so much, I more carefully arranged and shot the flowers.
Crew mates and Independent scientific researchers recover the box corer aboard the Greenpeace ship, MY Arctic Sunrise, in the deep waters in the Gulf of Mexico, Sept. 23, 2010. Problems with a guide roller on the wench was the cause to abort the operation. Greenpeace, partnered with teams of independent scientists, has been investigating the environmental effects of the oil spill and toxic dispersants used to break up the four million barrels of crude oil spilled in the worst environmental disaster in United States history.

Tell Congress: No New Drilling. Period.
If I were to continue to use the full size pieces that I used on the sides, I would only have room for 8 diamonds and 12 triangles. Not enough room for the design that I want on the top. So I will use half size pieces and have 16 diamonds and 24 triangles to make my “Aunt Sukeys Choice” quilt pattern. After laying the pieces out I glue on the first two as a unit.
