Winter 2010 Events!

January 30, 2010 - JAMNESTY - our big event we are currently planning is to raise money for License to Freedom in their pursuit to stop domestic violence in refugee and immigrant communities in San Diego. Take a look!http://www.licensetofreedom.org/.
Through this event we hope to get a couple bands to play at Porter's Pub and sell art to raise funding too. Currently, we are working on coalition building and getting word out about the event.  Contact us if you are interested in getting involved this quarter!  So far we have Social Green as our band and we're looking for an opener.  

Also, the second installment of our film series will be shown this quarter, day and time TBA!
