COUNTERCRAWL IV, ART ERRYWHERE AGAIN

FACE, Performance by M. R. Miller

The 4th installment of Countercrawl is right around the corner, and it comes packed with performance art, interactive visual art and as usual, many local bands. If you have not heard of Countercrawl yet, either by word of mouth, or through intentionally limited press outings, this is your chance to witness what might be defined as a multi-venue community building bike-ride, (similar yet somewhat rebellious to the execution and concept of Artcrawl) or by all biking means, make your definition of it through empirical observation.


So invite your friends,  pimp out your bikes, get your backpacks ready with bottles of water, brownies and a camera, and countercrawl  through the many exciting stops on Saturday  April the 28th.  The following is a tentative schedule posted by countercrawlers on Facebook:
