The 700 Space pARTy is the coolest thing happening in April or your money back. This free event will feature a whole night of “out of this world” entertainment sure to knock your space boots off, including guest appearances by your favorite aliens, bands, and artists. Come one, come all and by all means come in costume.
Launch Date:
16 April 2010 (rain or shine!)
18:00 – 23:00 hours
(that’s 6 PM – 11 PM for you civilians)
Why Space, you ask? And why pARTy?
This event is all about transforming vacant and traditional commercial spaces into art galleries and music venues for one evening. It’s also about bringing greater attention and new visitors to spaces that already exist as music and arts venues in our community (cough cough, Craft Chemistry). Because this event so heavily focuses on the theme of “spaces”, we thought it only right to introduce a space theme to the evening. We figured it couldn’t hurt.
