Don't be fooled
Who knew?
And, at the Scrap Exchange:
Outer Galactic Costume Creation
Workshop to be held Saturday, August 8 from 3 to 4:30 in our Make-N-Take room, in celebration of the Durham Art Guild show featuring a touring exhibit of Sun Ra ephemera, Pathways to Unknown Worlds: Sun Ra, El Saturn and Chicago's Afro-Futurist Underground, 1954-68.
Jim Kellough is helping plan a free-form, pre-exhibit Spectacle which will include a sidewalk procession from Durham Central Park to the Durham Art Council building on Saturday, August 8 beginning at 4:30pm.
This procession will feature Sun Ra-inspired costumes and music and will meander throughout downtown, ending at the Durham Arts Council where there will be a combination of film and music within the empty DAG gallery space.
For more information, contact Jennifer Collins-Mancour, Director, Durham Art Guild at 919-560-2713 or by email at artguild1@yahoo.com. www.durhamartguild.org

Since 1949, Durhamites have slept soundly, secure in the knowledge that, in our town, erection can be depended upon. Now, thanks to the power of the internets, we can spread that security all over the world.

WTF is up with that sign? All I can find on Google is a link to a message on a Raleigh Craigslist musician forum that got flagged...

It's left over from the Mayoral campaign two years ago, when it initially referred to Thomas Stith.
I have no idea why it was used in a Sun Ra guerrilla marketing campaign, but i love it.

I posted a photo of this sign on Facebook yesterday after I saw it. Anything that brings more attention to the upcoming Sun Ra festivities in town is OK by me!
Proud that I'll soon be a neighbor to the (in)famous traffic circle!
