Message to the Mayor
Mayor Nutter has not yet acted on his campaign promise to reinstate the Office of Arts & Culture.
With the city budget deadline rapidly approaching, Space 1026 is working with Roberta Fallon and Libby Rosof of Artblog to make the face of the "arts" constituency somehow more real than it seems when people talk about artists and the arts.
1. Take a photo of yourself in your environment.
2. Email your 375 x 281 pixel photo to libbyandroberta@gmail.com with your name and the location of the picture.
3. Please inform other artists via email, phone or handshake.

AND WHILE YOU ARE HERE FOR BRIAN's TALK
We have copies of the new issues of both MEGAWORDS and ANP QUARTERLY in the gallery.
These are two of the most interesting publications to come out in the past few years,
and they are both free.
Save some room in your bag for two copies, one to read and one to give to a friend in 6 months when they get clued in and can't find back issues.

Music Vidz TONITE! 1/22/08 @ Silk City 9:00pm
If you're too cold to go rollerskating tonight you might want to check out Silk City's music video screening party. It starts at 9:00pm and features a whole bunch of music videos from groups such as Animal Collective, Spank Rock, Stereolab, and lots more.
They'll also be showing three music videos that I made for Kimya Dawson, Plastic Little, and Sweatheart. So if you wanna see what these look like not on Youtube you should go check it out. There'll be DJing by Julian S. Process.

Office of Arts and Culture and art czar in jeopardy
The city budget is being decided by the end of this month and there is a possibility that Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter's campaign promise of reestablishing an Office of Arts and Culture and art czar may be broken.
Full Story on ArtBlog
"Failing to appoint and failing to create the office would be a missed opportunity -- as well as a broken campaign promise. We in the visual arts community were counting on Nutter to make it right for the arts community when we gave him our votes. Raise your voices asap!"
