Driven by experimentation, innovation, and collaboration, The Shed will&nbsp;be a center for artistic invention bringing together leading artists working in every art form with leading minds in the humanities and sciences. The program will be international,&nbsp;created with co-commissioning partners around the globe, and local, with early-career artists in residence&nbsp;in The Shed\u2019s free creative lab. Located on the west side of Manhattan where the High Line meets Hudson Yards, the unique and flexible building can physically transform to support artists\u2019 visions and the work they create\u2014from hip hop to classical music, visual art to literature, film to theater and dance\u2014with collaborations across these disciplines and beyond, welcoming the broadest range of art forms and audiences, all under one roof.<\/em><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>I&#8217;ve yet to go, but you can bet your sweet patootie, I will be there in the very near future.

When I write my posts I always do research on the subject and other related material.(Hence my disclaimer that I try for accurate info but no promises.) I thought it would be fun to Google the &#8220;patootie&#8221; phrase to see what I could discover. Couple of things, first of all it came about around the 1920&#8217;s and used to describe a pretty girl and\/or an animal&#8217;s backside&#8230;hmmm.  However,  most interesting to me was to find out that Fats Domino ( love his music) recorded a song he wrote,&#8221;Sweet Patootie&#8221;. Check it out and more about &#8220;Fats&#8221;: pianist, songwriter, singer and one of the pioneers of rock and roll&#8221;.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fatsdominoofficial.com\/\">www.fatsdominoofficial.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Photo and excerpts  from the websites of The Shed  and Fats Domino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Disclaimer: I try for correct info&nbsp; on my posts, but no guarantees people.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OR&#8230;What is the exciting new cultural center opening on the west side&nbsp;called?
