Saturday is also LIVE EARTH, a 24 hour, 7 continent concert benefiting our current planetary crisis of global warming. Art X-Po will be hosting a Party for the Planet sponsored by MoveOn.org to coincide with our opening reception. Doors will open at 7PM and we will be tuning in for a special introduction by Al Gore and catch a few hours of one of the largest concerts in history.

This and ALL Art X-Po events are FREE, ALL AGES, and OPEN to the PUBLIC!

This event will have a politically charged atmosphere and we encourage anyone to bring your politics, your voice, your signs, your buttons, your flyers, your knowledge, your ribbons and your heart to share with us.

ARTISTS: I will be hanging this exhibit on Friday. I will fit art ceiling to floor if it arrives. There is no entry fee… just your willingness to share. Your work will display for the next two months. Please contact Brandt @ (931)220-4532 or artxpo@gmail.com for more information.

 We all celebrate our culture and lives through human expression.  One of the purest forms of this is our art.  There is an event held here in Clarksville once a month to allow us all to express and share our art.  This event is The UPtown Artists’ Swap, held the last Saturday evening of every month from 7-10PM.  This event is hosted by The Icehouse Cafe (118 University Ave, between Cafe 541 and Burrito Bungalo).  In addition to hosting the event, the cafe graciously donates it’s wall space every month for Art X-Po, which showcases group and solo exhibitions of the region’s most premier artists.  All events at the cafe are all ages, free, and open to the public!

This month’s ‘Swap’ will be held this Saturday, Sept 30!  On hand will be many local artists including Miranda Herrick, Jesse Shaw, Brandt Hardin, Charles Bennett, Mike McKelvey and many many more!  ALL artists are invited to bring original arts and crafts to sell and trade.  Tables are available on a first come, first serve basis.  This provides a marketplace for the artists and public as well as a creative breeding-ground for artists to fuel their collective fire!  To top it off, special musical guest Ben Wilson will be on hand to entertain! 

This will be one of the public’s last chances to see the Art X-Po monthly display of TOPSY-TURVY: new works from Brandt Hardin.  Jesse Shaw’s American Printmaker: Demons exhibition will open next Thursday (Oct 5) from 5-8PM during Clarksville’s Downtown Artwalk.

The opening reception for ‘We the People’ was held at on Thursday evening, July 6th. Chris Lugo, Green Party candidate for Senate (see more at http://www.chris4senate.com/), was on hand to speak to the audience. Of his many motivations for running, Chris’s main objective, as he told the audience, was ‘to run for peace.’ A voter registration drive was also held at the event.
