The Forest Park House

The Forest Park House This is an ongoing "Bricolage" effort to enhance art & culture on a local level in Fort Worth via the medium of a happy residence.

Essentially, we have altered the format of our living space in hopes that a large viewing space will promote a communal engagement and proximity to art that can only be achieved via representation in a residence. We are reaffirmed, via historical analysis of the Tin Pan Alley days of Harlem, that house's are not only necessary in the expansion of culture, music and art, but they are a vital neces

sity to promoting well-being that can't be rivaled by any other medium. We consider Our house as a phenomena that is unique of our environment and carry's persistence of human spirit in its very existence. We are/have/uphold:
-A policy of No Cover charge/Free admission
- BYOB Etiquette . Admission with alcohol needs to be verified by proof that you are 21 years of age. People are responsible for their own alcohol and are required to guard its status.
- Artists play for free. *Tipping is not just suggested but EXPECTED (if you dont tip your [A] literally as poor as the artists themselves [which is rare if your not an artist], or [B] A sh*tty selfish person who dislikes music and therefore Texas). All tips given to the artist will go directly to the artist.
- Free Artistic engagement with the INSIDE of the house. No art outside the house, ESPECIALLY IN THE FRONT.
- A policy of No stealing, use of illegal substances, No violence or items that could damper an individuals safety (no knifes or guns) of any sort. I hope that we can create something thats not just beautiful or ugly but something that is reflexive of our culture and articulates our unique style. Joie De Vivre

Thanks for the great houseparty Fort Worth. You are all very well put together, and very tastefully dressed.

Special thanks to Sorne, Skeleton Coast, and DJ Ronnie Heart for the fantastic music that sounded just out of this planet in our front room.
Mike Coke-in-hower, how on earth do you (1) spell your name and (2) set up such a fantastic lighting spectacle?

We will be cleaning for the next year.

Oh mang, I wish the Longshots could come back and play another show sometime soon

In many ways, The Longshots are your typical roadhouse-rocking throwback band. Just four young dudes playing dirty rock ’n’ roll, looking grungy, and drivin’ all the ladies crazy. But there’s more to these cats than just pluck and good hair. Listen to them live or online, and you might think you’ve ...

What it does, what it do, Fort Worth Crew. Squanteux, humble house protector, has heard through whispering spirits that the Forest Park House will be having an event with 2 extraordinarily special bands. Who are these two bands? Well, lets not ruin the surprise shall we.

Let it be an announcement... The Duplex was denied, and the Ol' FPH is still standing on its weakened structural support, Rock & Roll, and spiritual protection via almighty and humble FPH protector, Squanteux.

Just like moses was told by some kinda enflamed bush of some religious mumbojumbo, Squanteux (hail hail) has forewarned the host of this page that their is an event lingering around the corner. Who you ask? Nobody knows who. It is however prophesied that they will come baring gifts of a vinyl that will be released to the public.

More on this later...........................stay in touch Fort Wurth

On the 6th of this month the FPH residents will find out whether or not the house will be destroyed at the end of the month to make way for a 2 story duplex.
