“Oh gosh!”, ”This thing is getting out of control”, “How big is this thing going to get?”, “Will it even fit in this warehouse?” , “That panel looks awesome!”, “That is only held together with glue?!”... These are but a few of the comments that recent visitors to the Phoenix Asylum have made about this year’s Apogaea effigy. Come out and see for yourself.

Where? The Phoenix Asylum on March 25st 4pm – 9PM for the next effigy workshop. Sorry for the late start but a couple Phoenix Asylum members (Steve & Dawn) are getting married earlier in the day and we can’t miss that! Hang around for late night and I’ll make sure that there’s food, drinks and good music to sit back and relax to.

We’ve pretty much completed the internal skeleton (those biscuits take some time to dry & clamp). Lighting is almost complete as well. During this weekend’s workshop we will begin cutting and applying the outer ¼” plywood to the exterior. This is when we are going to see the true form of the VolCANO. So bring your favorite pair of work gloves and eye protection as usual and let’s have some fun. No matter your knowledge or skill level you are guaranteed to be able to contribute and learn something at the same time.

Your participation at this event is required and not optional. Yes, drinking beer is participation!!! After all, FUN is our first and most important goal!

See you soon
