Hoboken Originals: All About {RAW: natural born artists}

Last week, I attended a very cool art show hosted by the Jersey City collective of RAW: natural born artists.

RAW is an international and independent arts organization that features and supports local emerging artists in fine art, fashion, music, film, performing art, hair, makeup and photography. They host frequent art showcases in lots of cities, including Hoboken!

Their most recent showcase, AWAKENING was held at Boa in downtown Hoboken, which was transformed into a living artist community – with plenty of space to roam through aisles of prints, paintings, photographs, and jewelry, stop and listen to musicians, watch a fashion show, and interact freely with each artist.

Their next event is SPECTRUM, on April 17th at Boa in Hoboken. Tickets are available here: http://www.rawartists.org/jersey/spectrum

I highly recommend a refreshing break from the regular bar scene, grabbing some friends and trying something different for a night out in Hoboken. (You can still dress to impress, and there’s a cash bar.) You’ll be supporting local independent artists, and you might walk away with a new favorite! I snagged this funky little bird print painted by Robyn Thompson, an artist out of Paterson, NJ.
