Artbot has bee programmed to visit the hard copy of the Hyde Park Arts Center today! In preparation, Artbot is exploring their web site.
1. Artbot likes the lettering of "Arts Center" and "Home" on the front page.
2. Artbot likes how easy it is to find driving directions plus parking info and cta directions!
3. Online classes! Artbot can take these in Artbot's pajamas!"
4. Artbot has a suggestion for the non-online adult art classes section: Artbot loved searching by media, but classes are only held as specific times. Artbot would also like to be able to browse through a calendar of all classes to match Artbot's availability with Hype Park Art Center's classes.
5. Past exhibitions take Artbot all the way back to 1997! Impressive!
6. Artbot is happy when Artbot's cyberped teacher uses the word "hambone" in a post on this site.
7. The birthday paty section has convinced Artbot to celebrate Artbot's next birthday (date of inception day) at Hyde Park Arts Center. Excellent choice of a photo. The photo nails it.
Artbot can't wait to motor down there tonight and see the nonvirtual space.

I'm curious to hear whether you think the website reflects the character of the Art Center once you come here and see it in person, Artbot. the suggestion regarding calendar is an interesting one. we are constantly revising the way we present and distribute info. did you see the schedule of classes by day? we have not included this online, but hope that info through pdf's help the process along.
ReplyDeleteCan I celebrate Artbot's date of inception day at HPAC with you? ;) I too am a fan of the way HPAC has carried through their logo design into their section titles with the funky lettering. It carries the design identity through nicely (and the colors help that too!). I missed the online classes though - where did artbot find those?
ReplyDeleteArtbot apologizes. Artbot can register for classes online, but there are no actual classes online. artbot used to work for an organization with online e-classes so Artbot got confused.
ReplyDeleteArtbot does think the website reflected the character of the Hyde park Art Center. It was not an inaccurate web depiction. Artbot also thinks that the real thing is more cutting edge and innovative (especially the design of the building and the exhibition of the work)than the web site. For example, Artbot likes Red Magic Style's rolling header... http://shoponline.redmagicstyle.com/index.jsp. Oooh... what a cool header.
