Hey Everybody
So I’m planning this huge event, and I need help. I’ve been pasting this around the internets:
I’ve got a plan, and in order for it to work, I need your help.
Let me cut right to the chase:
Spring of 2010 in Louisville, KY: Afropunk @ Art Sanctuary!!!
I have a fantastic venue lined up, Art Sanctuary/Alley Theater… they’re excited about helping create a holy-shit-kick-ass event along the lines of the Brooklyn event.
We’re going to show the AfroPunk film! We’re going to invite James Spooner down to talk about the movie. We’re going to book a couple of your favorite Afropunk bands as well as some local AP faves from our region. We’ll have art for sale, and live graffiti artists! Everything!!
Yeah, you heard me right. I’m planning on doing a smaller-scale Afropunk event here in Louisville, KY! Something for the AP’ers over here near Cincy, Louisville, Chi-town, Indy, Nashville & Memphis.
In order to make it happen, we need all kinds of help.
Foremost, we need sponsors for the event. If you own or know of any businesses who would like to get their name on our materials, shown on the screen, and get mad coverage in exchange for sponsorship of our event, that would be extremely helpful. Also if anyone has services to donate, such as web design & hosting, printing or anything else, that would be great too!
Right now we have the grand scheme of things posted up as several blog entries at:http://afropunkatartsanctuary.tumblr.com
you can check out the marketing plan so far as well as what we’re aiming to do at the event.
If you have any questions, hit me up at oreobarbie@gmail.com!
Thanks so much for reading, and please pass on the word! Show the website to other people.
