Kinda Collective

11/29/2018

Kinda Collective was a launch pad for many of its members, however we have disbanded sometime ago after losing the space to commercial real estate development in Denver. If you stumble upon this page and have any questions please feel free to contact Matthew Contos via messenger. Thank you to all the lovely people who contributed to the many projects Kinda put on during their time together! We miss the collective days but we are all grateful for the camaraderie and lessons we learned about art, community organizing, and collaborative practices.

Dear Friends,

As some of you may have heard by now, the Kinda Collective space at 4500 Leetsdale has been sold and all of its tenants evicted. The KC space, garden and other structures are slated for demolition later this year. We wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for all the joyful creation and meaningful conversations we’ve had over the last six years and to reflect on the space itself. For many of us, this event marks no less than the loss of a dear friend. While the Kinda Collective itself will continue, for the moment non-corporeally, it’s with a heavy heart we move on. We hope you will join us in carrying warm memories of our recondite haven for misfits and idealists. With gratitude and love.

We would like to invite you to participate in “ExChange Ways,” a project exchange between the Kinda Collective and Wildfire Collective. The collectives are teaming up to initiate a variety of works in each group's home town. Over the short span of 10 days they will implement multiple projects and events in Denver, Colorado and Bozeman, Montana. It will be awesome, and we want you to be a part of it.


HOW TO GET INVOLVED
You do not need to be an artist to participate, in fact no experience is necessary. You do not have to have prior experience with Kinda Collective or Wildfire Collective either. New comers are welcome!

There are a variety of ways to participate in “Ex(change) Ways.” To get the most out of the experience you can join the team that will travel to and work in both cities. We totally get it if traveling is not and option, but there are other ways to get involved without leaving home.
Other ways to participate may include: Joining the coordinating team, proposing a project, assisting with outreach, helping with transportation, cooking a meal for the guests, partnering with us on your own project/idea, volunteering to help implement projects, or anything else you can think of.

As Spanish unemployment reaches another record high, the residents of rural Marinaleda could be forgiven for feeling a little smug.

A new app allows you to scan a product in the supermarket aisle and learn who exactly is behind that box of cereal. More impressively, you can join user-created campaigns to boycott groups of companies who may have lobbied against a cause you believe in.

Our Friend Alex is stirring up trouble again...

Nobody gives a s**t about your art. The average amount of time spent looking at a piece in a gallery or museum is around 4-7 seconds.
