Tonight marks the next installation of MOCA's "Engagement Party" series, where the public is invited to participate in art installations with local collectives. Tonight Knifeandfork (founded by Brian House and Sue Huang) step up to the tee box for the intallation "Emptiness is Form (Golf and Donuts)."Knifeandfork retools miniature golf as an interactive art installation that appropriates the interior and exterior spaces through MOCA’s Grand Avenue campus. They promise other interactive surprises for the evening.
In addition to a bar onsite (19th hole anyone?), there'll be donuts provided by Donuts by Deanna Moody of Dee’s Bakery and Donuts, a DJ set by Wendy Yao and "voice interventions" (yeah, not sure about that either) by Nathan Phillips.
