On our upstairs level, Resident Studio Artists: John Czop (Chicago, IL.), Tony Santana (The Bronx, NY.), and Aaron Thompson (Mendocino County, CA.) recreate “Apocalypse Now” on a 35-ft.-wide mural, depicting the deconstruction of mankind, and the eternal and illimitable power of Mother Nature.

We welcome a $5.00 suggested donation at the door. A commemorative Origami dollar bill will be given to the first 30 patrons, so come early !. Your donations help us keep our productions going strong and keep Art Alive in Lower Manhattan. Pirates Forever!
