NIMBY artists set-up a number of pieces at The City of Oakland’s recent street event, Uptown Unveiled. Pictured above is Refoliation by artist Jen Forbes (left) and Exxothermia (right) a fire and ice sculpture by artist Vance Curley. Below is Sphae by artist Michael Christian. Not pictured here are the digital video art bike wheels by artist Dan Goldwater and BMX stunt rider Pete Brandt.

A great time was had by all at this fantastic event that truly showcased what Oakland is all about.  How great to see industrial and light based art taking over downtown.  Thank you Oakland for have NIMBY be a part of this wonderful event.

We rolled out to Maker Faire 2009 in true NIMBY style.  We hauled out a 20′ container, Snook’s Deuce and a Half truck, welding tables, barbed wire, camo net, golf carts and, of course, lots of tools.  Jen lead plastic bag wallet making while Lex and Dave taught the kids how to weld.  (Image below is Super Dave with Jaya and her first welding project.) All around it was a fabulously fun weekend.  Thank you to everyone who came a had a great time with us - and thank you MAKE for a great event.

Don’t forget to join us next Saturday June 6th for open shop day and pot-luck BBQ at NIMBY from 12 pm - until.
