The family members of CAC@SJB invite you to a very special community gathering on Saturday, December 13, 2008 from 12 noon - 4 pm.. our "Momentz of Noize" Holiday Jam 2008.  This special event is dedicated to our beloved sister, Danielle Locario, who returned home to the Lord this past September.

Blessings,
 
On Dec 13th, CAC@SJB and The In Progress Group are presenting a very special Art exhibition/Spoken word Community networking gathering, announcing another year of creative writing /performance workshops.. and more.
 
The event will be from 12 - 4 PM (the bldg closes at 4:30PM.. so no CP or PR time)
 
We again will be re-establishing our position,  that the buck stops with us in order to take back our youth one mind at a time,  and our communities one block at a time. 
 
Come and support yourself.  All we have is each other.
 
If you are a visual artist, spoken wordsmith or a motivational speaker that would like to take part, please contact us by Dec 8.
 
Too many instances occur in this society where parents outlive their children. Then we have family reunions in funeral palors asking for a moment of silence.
 
Well, NO MORE !  It's time to reverse this process with.. 

"Momentz of Noize"!


This special afternoon event will feature an ope-mic, a wonderful group art exhibition, and music in celebration of Christmas, Kwanzaa, and New Year's.. and it promises to be yet another blessed, joyous, and memorable event in the history of the Center.  To date, we have had over 20 events and special presentations at CAC@SJB since 2004, and they have all been very special in their own right.  If you have never been to the Center, or haven't visited the Center in some time, we invite you to experience the magic and all the blessings.. and find out why we consider the Center one of the "hidden gems" this side of Brooklyn.



CAC@SJB Director, Curator, and Community Artist, Glenn Angel, 
invites you to experience the Center at our "Momentz of Noize" Holiday Jam


The first part of the event (12 noon - 2 pm) will showcase the group art exhibition and time for artists and guests to introduce themselves to one another and network. The artwork on display is beautiful and is available for sale in original form, or in small prints.  Part of the proceeds from the art on sale is being donated in support of the Center to continue our efforts, to help support our projects in the future, and to support our community artists.

The second part of the even(2 pm - 4 pm) will feature the open-mic where special guest poets and others will have the opportunity to share their poetic talent and verses with everyone.  All are welcome to attend and step up to the mic to share their poetry, music, and thoughts throughout the afternoon.


Our brother and friend, amazing poet, "Word Bird" Malik Canty,
 invites you to bring a friend or two with you to the Center.. and break the chains!


All the artists are donating a percentage from sales of the artwork to the Center for the further development of CAC@SJB, and to support all our future endeavors.  We greatly appreciate all your generous contributions, and thank you for your continued support.  We couldn't do it without you.. the community.  We look forward to seeing all of you at the Center!
