Americana/ble
Join us on Friday, May 1, 2026 for Americana/ble, Kiddie Pool’s first BIG GROUP SHOW. This grand old house is opening its doors again for a lively pop-up salon featuring artwork and performances from 15+ artists, musicians, and community organizers with strong ties to the Capital Region. Think of it as a melting pot of contemporary art & thought, right here in our corner of Upstate New York. You’re invited to melt with us for the main event on May Day, or visit us to view the artworks during the month of May. Additional programming TBA!

Kiddie Pool is committed to gathering and sharing resources. Our first step for Americana/ble was raising funds for the essentials, including; event materials, physical labor, stipends for performing artists and organizers, and proper insurance for the artworks. And, we did it!
Thanks to 20 wonderful patrons and subscribers our Kickstarter campaign was fully funded, and we able to move forward with care for the folks making it happen. But, we’re not done yet. Additional programming is in the works; so wish us luck as we continue to drum up support for art + civic culture in the Capital Region.
