Cori’s Corner: The Week in Adventure the adventure school

Hi, I will be reporting on our goings on here at The Adventure School every Friday. Like, what do we do all day that is adventure-y anyways? Well, we do a lot of different weird stuff.

(eds. note: important to match fashion to construction safety gear.)

Let’s take it from the top. In the last few weeks, Team Adventure has grown. So, we had to get a new studio space. We expanded across the hall and now we do all of our team scheming over in Studio Seven at Noodleworks in Seattle’s International District. The project to beautify the space has been headed up by Gao Gao. There has been painting, there has been demolition and there has been a newfound obsession with chalkboards. We have been outfitting the joint with Home Depot supplies, stops at UW Surplus and combing through our own extensive junk supply. In the coming weeks, you will assuredly find a makeover story with full ‘before and after’ shots. But, please enjoy these photos of a lean mean two woman demolition team in the interim.

So, when we are not busy moving, we go to meetings, work until 5 am and generally whoop it up. Maybe, we will see you around like at Pacific Fabric Outlet or at the Wells Medina Nursery in Medina, or at Big John’s PFI for a cheese scouting field trip. Obviously, you can almost always hang around the ‘Hi Boss’ cold case at Uwajimaya to spot us in the wild. Adventure often takes us to places like Skyway Luggage for meetings, or the Lake Union Park construction zone. Maybe we will see you at the liquor store, PopCap Games World HQ, Seattle Weekly’s Food Awards, farms and generally whereversville USA . . . come adventure with us?

Yesterday, we produced the 2010 Burke Museum Curators Dinner. PARTY! Photos to come. Check out those little Washington native plants above, that we turned into beautiful, sustainable and downright cheap centerpieces. The party was bangin’, the raise the paddle was a cavalcade of generosity and it’s funny to watch people get drunk under the shadows of Mammoths. Anyways, the week was excellent. I learned a lot from the other member’s of the team. Today, Gao Gao is in Ohio, Erin is in Santa Barbara, Lindsay is adventuring somewhere here in the Puget Sound and Aviva and I are about to take a lunch break to celebrate the 70 plus hour work week we put in this week. See you there. By the way, my spirit animal card for the day is contrary deer.
