The Mildred Complex(ity)
37b Main Street, Narrowsburg, NY 12764
The Mildred Complex(ity) is a project space exhibiting creative thinkers and makers working at Mildred's Lane, an art site and residency. Mildred's Lane comes out of the woods and onto Main Street USA to form a series of projects and events for the Upper Delaware River Valley community and beyond. The aims of town projects are in the spirit of exchange, making connections to this distinctive river town, Narrowsburg, New York.
Topics include contemporary, post-recession economic strategies for artists, changing art world dynamics, and expanding creative practitioners' roles. We define storefront practices as spaces for emergence – particularly concerning environmental action and social engagement. The storefront allows us to directly engage the public visiting Main Street, taking on the challenge of reframing new possibilities for community involvement by activating curiosity.

April 30 through May 30
Closing reception, May 28, 2021.
The Mildred Complex(ity) consists of a studio, office, experimental retail storefront space in Narrowsburg's quaint hamlet, a hundred miles northwest of New York City. Year-round we present projects, workshops, lectures, and exhibitions.
Currently, A Guide to the Field is occupying The Mildred Complex(ity), at 37b Main Street, Narrowsburg, NY 12764
Unlike a typical 'field guide,' where one searches for the natural world's identification and definition, A Guide to the Field creates a field by naming it. It offers alternatives to what needs guiding, interpretation, and consumption and questions what a future field looks like.
Upcoming projects and collaborations include:
APRIL MAY / A Guide to the Field presents / Angles of Repose / Jeffrey Jenkins
JUNE / Mildred's Lane Remembers / Matthew Solomon
JULY / Mildred's Lane / Silver - Iron - Light / Noah Doely and Fellows
