Dear Friends and Colleagues,

This is the YEAR of the HOOSH! Truly, Mildred’s Lane Inc. is having a gorgeous season full of inspiring exhibitions, installations, and sessions; we invite you to visit before the chill sets in! 

For me personally, the last seven years have been chaos, hardship – occurring all at once. 

However, from the other side of this mayhem, something has shifted. Strange magic is seeping up through fissures in the meadows and cracks of the fragile structures in this hidden wild and historic landscape – a pupa-like transformation is happening. Those who are watching, see and feel it!

Amidst all, the chaos and strife, there are real physical accomplishments to announce; new art installations are emerging such as: 

• The re-installation of The Living Archive, a project for MoMA, NYC 2012 is now partially housed in the Quonset building. 

• The Department of Interstitchiaries (2024), now a year-round flexible space for archiving, gathering for lectures, workshops, and performances.

•The Millie-Lillie-Lenape Trails, a blazing trails project bringing the landscape into focus, determining various paths to explore in three-quarters of the forest on the other side of the creek. 

• The WORKSTYLES of Mildred’s Lane compendium is fermenting and about to erupt, now entering the design phase – publication coming soon.

• A new, refreshed and streamlined website has launched, thanks to The Recorder of Retinal Memories, Kiki Gordon.

• A new town studio –ANNEX to The Mildred Complex(ity) Project Space in town – is in production!

The trees are speaking to us, and we are listening! Creative thinkers and doers are making history here in these deep woods and we want you to be involved! Help us through this transcendent rebirth and reconstruction! 

We need your support and nurturing to bring us closer to becoming a new social and ecological center of thinking-doing-making – BEING in the 21st c. – Come visit – see what change looks like.

-From the heart,

“Mildred's Lane is a living artwork, but more: for a quarter of a century, it has been an incubator of ecological art, where youthful residents come to work and play with the master artists and artisans who have shaped this unique domain. Through guest lectures, Social Saturday dinners open to the community, and exhibitions at The Mildred Complexity, an aesthetics of profound collaboration with the natural world finds diverse and appreciative publics.”
