Art Room 8: breakfast #2---dates?

[Art Room 8] Art Room 8: breakfast #2---dates?

Hey! It's approaching the end of April already!

Let's settle a date for people to meet:
-Rine mentioned April 26th
-Beth mentioned April 24th or May 17th
-I'm personally swamped for the next week and a half. If everyone
could meet on this upcoming Sunday-cool-I'll somehow get there!!

*I would be game for something in May? Say May 10th
or May 17th?

Let the date-brainstorming session begin!

-excited for breakfast! And I have some new ideas to share!

-Charlie D.

***By the way, I sent this out via BLOG, and I didn't realize no one received it, I assumed when I posted something on our sweet blog it would be sent out to everyone...apparently not!  So, I think I changed some of the settings so that when I post something it should from now on send to your electronic mailboxes!

Version Fest begins this week!


This is a forwarded message from Lumpen-- Art group in Chicago.  *(if you haven't heard of them).

I don't know much about Lumpen.  I recall Version Fest last year and didn't check out anything...so this year (this week, starting Friday), I hope to check out a couple venues for festivities. 

The version website below has a schedule of the various art events during the Version Fest.

If people are down, I'm down to meet up.--I'm pretty sure I'm going to check out some stuff on Friday and possibly Sunday!  Otherwise, have a swell week!

-Charlie D

****************************************************************************************************
We are installing projects at 5 different location this week so that we may bring you Version 09 Immodest Proposals. Then we move on into new territory next week.

Don't miss why we love Chicago's art worlds so much.
Please try to navigate the website and see what is happening
