309 Punk House

The Pensacola Underground A-Z exhibit is a curated show happening Sept. 7 at the 309 Punk House.

This Saturday is the closing exhibition for the 309 Artist in Resident, Eniko Ujj. The Hungarian-born artist will showcase new oil paintings she’s worked on during her residency as well as a fully immersive video installation. WUWF’s Jennie McKeon spoke with her about her work and experience at 309.

In conjunction with Night on the Tracks, the 309 Punk Project will be hosting a photography exhibition featuring the work of two northwest Florida natives who have moved away to cultivate rich careers in the art and music scenes.

In conjunction with the 309 Punk Project, DIY Pensacola will be hosting the first-ever DIY Film Fest, a screening of low-budget movies and video projects created by regional artists. The festival is an opportunity for people to make movies with their friends or share films they’ve been keeping to themselves.

The 309 Punk Project welcomed photographer Julia Gorton, known for documenting New York City’s ‘No Wave’ scene of the 1970s and 1980s, as this month’s artist in residence. Capturing a brief era with unique style and avant-garde music, Gorton shot trailblazers of the scene, including Debbie Harry, Patti Smith, Iggy Pop, David Byrne, and others.

The 309 Punk Project will be hosting “War Against Conformity: Pensacola’s 1970s Underground Press” this Saturday and Sunday. The event and series of discussions will highlight the underground press movement from the 1960s and 1970s, with a focus on Pensacola’s short-lived Gulf Coast Fish Cheer.
