A community art show sponsored by Safe Haven residents with assistance by
students in FAA 391 and artist-activist group U&I Collab.
In an effort to reconsider the social constructions of both an art space and
the terminology of "community", students from the University of Illinois
and Safe Haven community members are working together to sponsor a
"deconstructed" art show at the *Independent Media Center on December 4th
from 6-9 pm. * The show will also encompass a community potluck.
Art is being sought to display. As a "community" art show, submission of
any art form is encouraged. These forms include music, poetry, performance,
new media, installation, and the more traditional media of painting and
sculpture. Review of submitted art will be handled by Safe Haven. Art
carrying an activist message or a reflection on personal ideals will be
strongly considered.
Submissions must be made by November 20th at Noon.
For questions or to submit a 2D image and explanation email:
edenis2 at illinois.edu
or call 618.527.6514. In-person submissions can be made at the East St.
Louis Action Research Project office: 326 Noble Hall, MC-549, 1209 South
Fourth Street; Champaign, IL 61820.
Also, if you are interested in volunteering your time as part of the
community organizing this show, please be sure to contact us.

*IMC Shows Presents:
Ferrocene3 meets Tree Thump*
FERROCENE3
Rooted in Urbana Champaign's improvised music community is Ferrocene3 an
ambient, avant world ensemble featuring Jason Finkelman exploring his use of
laptop electronics and percussion combined with Jay Eychaner’s signature
blend of textured electronic murmur and fastidious approach to tone. For
this IMC performance, Johnny Ride, a sound shifting electric guitarist who
applies extended techniques with preparations and a variety of pedals, will
sit in for regular ensemble guitarist Nick Rudd.
TREE THUMP is a Fithian, IL based band performing didjeridu driven music
with a penetrating, psychedelic vibe and funky drum and bass grooves, topped
off with sweet and fiery explorations on the electric violin, accented with
percussive mayhem.
