Window Pain Presents: An Evening of Creative Political Change and Inspiration

Where:
Carnegie Center 401 Main

When:
Saturday, 23rd of August 2003 from 6:00 PM until approximately 10:00 PM

Cost: Free

Window Pain Group presents an evening of creative political change and 
inspiration grounded in community, a preamble to the Window Pain Group Art 
Show, which will be held in the fall.

The Window Pain Project grows from an outraged disabled population, who is 
under an attack of astounding proportions. They are a part of a government 
lead re-assessment. In response 19 disability level 2 and level 1 
recipients will collaborate on an art exhibit that asks the question, 
"How has the government re-assessment process affected your life?"

What: 
a political community event to ignite communities into creative action to 
counter government cuts, which are drastically affecting the 
disenfranchised communities

When: 
August 23, 2003, doors open 6pm, show starts 7pm

Where: 
Carnegie Center 401 Main

How you can be involved:
We are currently seeking closeted soap box stars, spoken word artists, poets, 
performance artists, beat box to create works (or use work you have) around 
the theme of government cuts focusing on your visions of solutions, what we 
can do creatively to counter this attack! Tell the tale and end with what you 
think the solutions are or can be, in your wildest dreams. The evening will 
also feature a Slam Poet event, and diverse political speakers who will 
speak on the topic.

The  event at Carnegie on the 23rd is free, therefore, we will not be accepting 
donations at that event.

As you all know, we have been asking for financial support from those who are 
able to provide a boost for the up and coming art show.

You can deposit any donations directly into a bank account set up for Window Pain 
at CCEC Bank at 2250 Commercial Drive Vancouver BC, V5N 5P9. Account number 
9063-9; Telephone: 604-254-4100.
