The Art Mission is proud to present an evening with Steve Monosson on December 11th at 8:00pm. Steve will be screening selected scenes from his feature film "Log Jam" and discussing the process of making it.

Log Jam tells the story of NYC documentary filmmaker Hank Braddigan who is invited to Oneonta to interview elusive artist Art Angst. Gathering together his rag-tag crew, they embark into the wilderness to discover both the secrets of Art and also life changing realizations of their own.

Steve Monosson began his journey in visual arts with still photography, developing a long, fruitful association with the Superstock Photo Agency. He transitioned into advertising by taking a position of Advertising Studio Manager for several years for a small but vital agency, CMG Communications.

In 2006, Steve moved out of New York City to be able to be able to devote all his time to creative work. His first venture was to work as Co-Author/Digital Artist/Designer with author Jim Mullen (It Takes A Village Idiot) on a comic graphic novel, Hookline & Sinker. After Hookline, Steve finally returned to his first love — filmmaking. Determined to begin work on his LOGJAM script, it did not take long for him find another big city refugee creative, Joe Stillman, and begin preliminary production.
