MOTOMICHI: Wall Show in Newburgh NY | Hudson Valley

​Tokyo, to NYC, to Berlin, to Newburgh: On Saturday, March 14th, artist MOTOMICHI will turn the side of 26 S William St into a living canvas. Made possible by Awesome Newburgh, and in collaboration with NYC gallery NowHere, we're bringing Japanese-born, Parsons-trained projection artist Motomichi Nakamura to Newburgh for a pop-up outdoor projection experience, it’s completely free and open to all.

​MOTOMICHI's bold, animated works have lit up the New Museum, the MTA's Fulton Center, and major festivals around the world. Now they're coming to our blocks, because world-class art belongs here too. For this event, MOTOMICHI has created a new animation designed specifically for this site, a one-of-a-kind work made for this building, this corner, this community.

​The projections are wordless, graphic, and joyful. No art-world knowledge required. Just show up and enjoy the show! Kids, teens, adults, all welcome.

​Arrive early. During setup, from around 6:45PM, MOTOMICHI will offer a live walk-through for anyone curious about digital art and projection, a rare chance to learn directly from the artist about what goes into making the work.

​Our goal is simple: a free light event that makes you proud of your city, sparks a conversation on the sidewalk, and opens the door to more creative collaboration between Newburgh artists, residents, and visiting creatives.

​See you on the corner. 🌆

​A free, family-friendly public art event
