"475 Kent Lives"

The displaced residents of 475 Kent Ave. have a new show at the Queens Museum of Art. 

New show at the Queens Museum of Art from the residents of 475 Kent.  About three months the residents of 475 Kent were evicted, due to a possible fire hazard, what with the matzoh factory in the basement. But it was still home to over 200 people, many of them artists.

Now a couple dozen of the residents have come back together to put on an art show. Titled "475 Kent Lives," the show is at the Queens Museum of Art (a curator who signed a petition supporting them suggested the show) through July 13th. But what have the artists been creating while they've been couch-hopping? Not much, apparently.
