Occupy Art Is Here

Hey again all. That date for that Occupy Art Show at Theater for the New City that we have been blogging about for the past few weeks now on this blog is finally here. Okay, well that date for that Occupy Art Show, or is it Occupy Art NYC Show at Theater for the New City in that city of New York, is almost here and very near, as that November 12th date for that show finds itself a couple of days away as we post this blog post. And Occupy Wall Street, that global revolution of an event is still moving fast as today finds itself as Occupy Wall Street Day 55 and tomorrow finds itself as 11.11.11 with a host of Occupy Wall Street 11.11.11 events, 11.11.11 Occupy Central Park and 11.11.11 Occupy The Streets. Occupy The World events going on. And we have made a few changes to our Occupy Art NYC Show @ Theater for the New City Facebook event invite since we last posted it on this blog a while ago. We have added performance times for a few of the musicians and we are still hoping to have an open mic towards the end of the show. And even though that Occupy Art Show facebook event invite says that there will be a live video feed component as part of this show, we are not really sure if there will be a live video feed component as part of this event, though we would hope so. And that "After-party TBA" that finds itself mentioned as part of our Occupy Art Show Facebook event invite, well we are not really sure if there will be an after party to be announced after our Occupy Art show. We will see we guess. And we would like to thank the The Villager Newspaper for mentioning the Occupy Art NYC Show @ Theater for the New City in this weeks edition. And we would also like to thank Brent Felker - "the 99" who will be opening up his HD projector for anyone who needs it to show their films. So bring your occupy art, 99% films for Brent. Thanks Brent. We will be using the downstairs Cabaret Theater at the Theater for the New City November 12th and hope to have a few programs printed for everyone to read the shows schedule for that day. And as we mentioned before, this schedule is not set in stone and may be subject to change depending on the amount of people who show up that day, though we are hoping to follow some kind a basic format for that day. And that SinXero (SX) photo that finds itself posted above for that Occupy Art Show at Theater for the New City November 12th, well it just Occupy Art NYC Rocks. And that "PROTEST!" Art Show at Theater for the New City has since opened up at Theater for the New City since we last posted about it on this blog. And we would like to invite you to view the "PROTEST" art exhibition while you are at the Theater for the New City during the Occupy Art Show also. We would also like to invite you to visit Our Occupy ART NYC Facebook page to continue the occupy art discussion of ongoing events after our Occupy Art Show event November 12th has passed. And so that Occupy Art Show, or is it Occupy Art NYC Show facebook event invite reads something like as follows. We look forward to seeing you Saturday.

We are pleased to invite you to "Occupy Art NYC~!" an art, performance and exhibition pop up party to be held at Theater For The New City on Saturday, November 12th from 4pm until 9pm.
This event is inspired by the Occupy Wall Street protests. We will present all art genres: Visual Art, Performance and Film/Video to be featured at the event, which will also have a live video feed component. Occupy Wall Street artists and documenting artists will mingle with other downtown voices and vibes to expand scope, perspective and inspiration towards an ongoing series of future culture jams around this theme and time. Time is Now.
