Texas Kaos is Having a Party and Y'all are Invited

Mark your Calendars for Saturday July 19th 7:00PM to 10:00PM.  As the Netroots Nation conference winds to a close Saturday evening, come by Bay6 Studios in East Austin:





Kick Back and Kick it Up before We Kick 'Em Out!


Photobucket

Sponsored and hosted by Texas Kaos and Bay6 Gallery.  Featuring music, food, drink and  a group art exhibition of work by Texas artists with a political theme titled:

"Blogging from the Right Side of the Brain."


In honor of all of the effort that has been going on around Texas Kaos over the last couple of years Bay6 Studios has decided to host a party to say thank you for all of the good work you have done.  Please accept this as your personal invitation to attend.  I would like to also personally extend an invitation out there to any artist's, lurking or not, to submit pieces for consideration in the show.  I have always been fascinated by left brain/right brain thinking (as opposed to GOP no brain thinking!) and hope this event turns into a good mix between the bloggers and artists.  We have some great art work lined up for the event already and will make room for more if you are so inclined.


This is an out of pocket expense for Bay6, our way of saying thank you to people like Krazypuppy, Boadicea, and all of you really who make this a stimulating place to be.  We will be passing the boot at the event and all proceeds will go to ActBlue, editors choice (sounds like a good opportunity for a poll).  


We are not looking for any cash to put the event on, but if you are in the Austin area and would like to participate in catering, food, drink or music, we would appreciate any and all donations to the effort.  If you would like to lend a hand in putting the event together, volunteering at the event that would be helpful also.


Looking forward to seeing you all there.

Since its SxSW premiere, CRAWFORD has sold out festivals across the country; it has been praised in VARIETY, Texas Monthly, Film Threat, Politico.com and Premiere, lauded by Jake Gyllenhaal and Richard Linklater and linked to by the NYT's Frank Rich. Last month, its premiere in the town of Crawford, Texas garnered two national AP stories; on the same night it won Brooklyn Film Festival's Audience Award for Best Documentary. On Friday, July 18 it will screen at Netroots Nation, with director David Modigliani in attendance for a Q and A. See it before it bucks the system with a progressive release.
