Whatnot

If you’re in DC, go to Artomatic. Now. Go.

I saw some amazing stuff last night. Pure Light Seed did a really powerful set. Slam poets Omékongo, Bomani Armah and Droopy gave some really entertaining performances. To top it off, there’s amazing art all over the place.

The sad thing was there was all this amazing stuff and hardly anyone there. It’s in the austere Crystal City. Imagine a bunch of bohemians invade an office building, cover the walls in graffiti, put up art all over the place and start playing music. Awesomeness, huh? It is definitely worth a visit and next Friday one of MPP’s own will be performing with Capitol Fire Arts. That ought to be really cool.
