PUBLIC EVENTS CALENDAR AND ACTIVITIES LISTINGS

WE WANT YOUR EVENTS:

The idea behind the public events calendar [see it] is that it is a directory of events for you, of you, by you. We want your artistic events, so let us know what is happening in your area, no matter how big or small.

Each listing on the calendar starts off with the closest largest city, if the event is not nationwide, so you can see at a glance if the event is applicable to you. The arrow in the upper right of the calendar screen gives you a dropdown key of calendar subjects by color, so you can narrow the calendar down to show only events that are important to you.

This calendar is a free, great, public place to list your artistic, social, political, or scientific event. Here's how:

Email us with:

  • Closest big city to the event, if it is not national or Internet-based
  • The who
  • The what
  • The where, as exact as possible
  • The when, including time and time zone, and if the event repeats, etc.
  • The why
  • The how
  • A copy of a flier or photo, if you have one, and photo credit name/link
  • Any links/contact info where people can go to find more info
  • Other necessary info: cost, 21+, sponsors, parking, etc.

Your event will show up as soon as we can upload it! We do reserve the right to refuse to list someone's event if it doesn't comply with our standards, ethics, or general overall good-for-the-peeps gut feeling, but if you're being cool, then we probably won't refuse it. Send in as many as you want (but please check to see if they are already listed, first! No repeats!)

ARTOPIA BRINGS ALL-AGES STREET FAIR ART TO SEATTLE

Artopia is an all-day, all-ages, outdoor event in support of local artists that takes place in Seattle's Georgetown neighborhood. Last year's edition included such attractions as Hazard Factory's Power Tool Drag Racing, the Flight To Mars Birthday Cake, a child friendly carnival midway, live music, and some funky gallery shows.

Artopia '08 lands on Saturday, June 28th, 2008, and Ignition Northwest has decided to get behind it all the way in an effort to have a Burning Man-style art extravaganza that is all-ages. Thumbnail sketch: they're going to take over one "zone" of the fair with their own stage, theme camps, and art. And they're putting their money where their [collective] mouth is, with grants for artists and theme camps. Now, they need YOU.

The first step to getting involved is to join the conversation. Make sure you're on SEAVENT, the public event planning list for Seattle-area Burning Man and art-related activities.

To join, send mail to: seavent-subscribe@yahoogroups.com.
For more questions, contact Ivan Cockrum via Ignition Northwest.
More information will follow when more details are known.

THE BRIDGE PROJECT - DANCE SHOW - THIS WEEKEND

This weekend, at the Odd Fellows Hall on Capitol Hill (the Century Ballroom building) in Seattle, there will be a set of dance performances called the Bridge Project. This is an annual event where three Seattle choreographers each develop a new show in three weeks' time, the results of which will be performed together this weekend. A good friend of the co-op, DJ Fauxfaux, will be mixing Bollywood music for the show by choreographer Kristina Dillard. If you are in the area, please support this awesome dance project.
