Tuesday November 12th
The Art of Mecca Normal

Join us Tuesday, at 7pm, for a one day whirlwind show from 
anarchist/feminist rock duo Jean Smith and David Lester. Collectively known 
as Mecca Normal, the pair describe themselves as a "two-person guerrilla 
campaign against apathy."

7:30pm - artists' talk , "How Art and Music Can Change the World" (no charge)
8:00pm - musical performance by Mecca Normal, with local opening acts The 
Violents, Triple Whip, and Karrrina ($6 dollar cover for concert)

Friday November 15th
The Dreaming Wood
The Art of Cindy Westfall

This Friday, from 7pm-9pm, local artist, illustrator, jeweller and 
metal-worker Cindy Westfall will greet the public for the opening of her 
one-woman show. Incorporating mythological and natural elements into a 
distinctive voice that hints at a darker world hidden just under the 
surface of our day to day reality, Westfall's work both challenges and 
delights. Spirits will be provided by The Corkscrew Wine Emporium.

After the opening stay and visit our back performance space to see local 
bands Rectangle, Re:Rec, The Potomac Accord, and The Dynamo Theorem.

The Dreaming Wood will run from November 15th through December 15th.
