Punk Preservationists Present: Save the Art Barn opens up the archives while also taking a look at how contemporary students, faculty, and artists have been inspired by the building. Visitors can delve into Ant Farm’s design process, and see the building’s construction and early days. The building was a testing ground for wild ideas and new processes and has been a classroom, studio, practice space, and shooting location for generations of students and faculty, from filmmakers like Tony Conrad and Lola Betz to musicians like Mia Zapata and painters like Karsten Creightney.
