PLEASE FORWARD WIDELY (and tell all your friends):

Celebrate the IMC's First Birthday with Jazz by Groove Yard!

6PM Friday Feb. 8 @ IMC, 218 W. Main St., Downtown Urbana

The Urbana-Champaign Indpendent Media Center celebrates one-year of
grassroots media production in our downtown Urbana home with food, fun and
jazz by local sensations Groove Yard. Come see how Indymedia has taken
root in Urbana-Champaign and see how we've grown. There will be free food
and drink, followed by open mic entertainment at 8 PM with the weekly
Friday Nite Cabaret.

The U-C IMC had its grand opening Jan. 19, 2001, the night before the
coronation of George W. Bush into the nation's presidency, becoming one of
only a few IMC's worldwide to have its own space to house independent
media production. In just a short year the U-C IMC has spawned two weekly
radio programs on community radio WEFT--IMC Radio News, a half-hour news
wrap-up, and Life in the Bike Lane, a short "drop-in" program heard during
WEFT's morning programming--the public i, a monthly newspaper, along with
this interactive news website. The IMC space has grown into a full-fledged
community center, hosting concerts, talks, classes and meetings, along
with production space for all types of media.

Everyone is invited to celebrate and become part of the Indymedia
revolution!

P.S. Limited edition UCIMC t-shirts will be available at the party!

P.P.S. If you would like to help supply food and beverages, please contact
