I thought things would slow down a little after the Friends With You show last month but it seems those were false hopes. (look for yourself in these youtube videos here and here)
As you can see from the calendar, the month is already filling up with amazing openings and festivities. There are a couple of events worth mentioning that we just didn't have room for on the calendar.
The Pro-Choice Resources Art for Choice event is happening Friday, November 9th
from 6:30 to 10:00pm at the Graves 601 Hotel. This year the Art for Choice event consists of fine art, a dynamic performance by Jules Weiland and Janelle Ranek of IOU Productions, appetizers, cash bar and live music. Proceeds from the event will benefit Pro-Choice Resources' education and access programs.

But first, show your support for the arts by attending the Minnesota Citizens for the Arts Annual Meeting this Monday, November 5th at the Illusion Theater. All are welcome! Admission is free for MCA members and $5 for the general public.

Featured speakers Sheila Smith and Larry Redmond will present:
Making History: The Upcoming Campaign for Minnesota's Arts & Culture.
In November of 2008, on the 150th anniversary of our state, Minnesota voters will have the historic opportunity to make a great step forward to preserve our cultural heritage by voting for a Constitutional amendment that will create designated funding for the arts and environment. It will be a nationally prominent move that will bring benefits for the next 25 years.
Be among the first to hear the exciting details of this landmark opportunity for the arts in Minnesota, from those who are already working behind the scenes.
It's your future. Make it happen.
