Wireamsburg Art Hunt

WHEN: Sunday May 3, 2026, 1-4 pm.
WHERE: Summertime - 145 Ainslie Street, Brooklyn
WHO: Artist in residence James Marks + Summertime community (all ages welcome)
WHAT: Wireamsburg Art Hunt

James Marks is an artist based in Shreveport, Louisiana whose media include wire, pipe cleaners, chance, and good neighborliness. As the culmination of his residency at Summertime, James is organizing a scavenger hunt around the neighborhood of Williamsburg, thus transforming it into Wireamsburg.

James will hide his handmade wire sculptures at various locales and neighborhood businesses – on utility poles, in coffee shops, atop dive bars, and more. Participants will be equipped with a page of helpful hints as they embark on their way to find and photograph the hidden treasures.

After the hunt, come celebrate with a pop-up and cookout back at Summertime from 2:30-4pm. James will be hosting with some of his favorite Louisiana dishes, including Cajun Sausage, King Cake, and Lime Sherbet Punch. Shop James’ collection of wire friends and meet the Wire Man himself.
