Hungry for some self expression? Would you like to take a bite out of some
performance art? Here's your chance baby. The first EAT @ MadArt happens
this Thursday June 14th. Hotdog! Actually there won't be any hotdogs or
any other food, unless you bring it, but there will be creative people, good
music, experimental film, fire, chalk, great conversation, costumes,
dancers, and whatever else anyone brings to the table.
E.A.T. stands for Experimental art Thursdays and it's your chance to
socialize, collaborate, network and experiment with artists and art

We're hosting Bloomsday this Saturday (June 16) from open to close (11am to 10pm). That means we'll have a slew of folks reading it all day long. It can take up to 36 hours to accomplish so we're only taking part in a sliver of it, but after we close the folks involved will be moving it on to a late-night environ, probably involving Guinness.

There has been increasing reports of Sen. McCaskill's refusal to meet
with peace activists in Washington D.C. Some of us feel that it is
important to keep the pressure on Claire over the summer, especially in

regarding the war. There will be a group of us bannering outside of Sen.

is in the Delmar Loop, at 5850 A Delmar Boulevard. Please come join us!
