Default Come to the inaugural Art Happy Hour!
Introducing a chance to gather and discuss issues and ideas about art in person, without agenda, without contention, over a civilized nip o' the good stuff!

The Art Happy Hour!

All artists, art lovers, and art observers are invited to the inaugural Art Happy Hour! in early February.

And what's more, if you visit the site now, you can have a say as to when and where the first Art Happy Hour!will place. (Act fast, the
polls will be closing soon).

All interested members of the community are invited!

Cheers!
-M



From the "About" page:

The Art Happy Hour! is a monthly gathering of Minnesotans who
appreciate the finer things in life, especially: A.) Art, and B.)
Happy Hour.

The Art Happy Hour!posits that the world would be a much better
place, on the whole, if more people enjoyed the following things: A.)
Art, and B.) Happy Hour.

For those of you who still aren't getting what we're saying here,
consider this:

Art (according to the fine folk at Wikipedia) (for lack of a more
convenient source of information) "refers to a diverse range of human
activities and artifacts, and may be used to cover all or any of the
arts, including music, literature and other forms."

We take art to refer to the same, and anyone who is into any of these
things is welcome to join in the Art Happy Hour! Meanwhile, also
consider this:

Happy hour (also according to Wikipedia) is "a period of time in
the late afternoons, Monday through Thursday, and sometimes Friday
(usually taking place between 4 pm and 7 pm…) during which some
restaurants and bars give discounts for drinks, especially alcoholic
drinks. The idea is that it acts as a promotion of the venue during
the quieter times."

Art Happy Hour! considers happy hour to be one of civilized society's
better rituals, the best time of the week to unwind from work, to join
in good conversation, and allow oneself have high spirits (in all
senses of the phrase). Plus, happy hour makes the wheels of commerce
go round!

Here's our mission: The Art Happy Hour! will take place once a month
somewhere across the great metropolis of Minneapolis-St. Paul. It will
a good time for all. It will be sometimes epic, sometimes
underwhelming (especially if there's a snow storm). It will be
artistic and happy.

Of course, we promote the idea of responsible and safe drinking and
encourage participants to consider arranging transportation when
engaging in a good happy hour. We want everyone to live long ornery
lives full of art and happy hours, but we can take no responsibility
for people's behavior, such as it may be.

Happy Art Happy Hour!

Yeah man! Good to see you active again. I was just wondering if you had checked out iOffer.com. They have no listing fees, They have a good artist community, and you can import all your ebay ratings.. I think it's ripe for your entry into their market. Check it out if you have time.
