Super-Mega Awesome Pot Luck for the New Year

Time	Sunday, January 2, 2011 · 5:00pm - 10:30pm
Location	Clockworks Cafe & Cultural Center 241 Commercial St NE Salem, OR
Created By	Ryan Rogers
More Info	New Years is my very favorite holiday because it's a chance to think about life starting anew....a chance to embrace what has come before, and to look into the future of a new day. Every year I have a special dinner gathering of close friends to share in this yearly rebirth...and this year, since Clockworks is closed for the New Years weekend, I thought instead of having a FEW for the day, that I'd open the door for my many amaz...ing friends.

Community Mix-Tape Exchange (Theme: New Beginnings)

Time	Thursday, December 16 · 7:00pm - 10:00pm
Location	Clockworks Cafe & Cultural Center 241 Commercial St NE Salem, OR
Created By	Culture Shock Community-Project
More Info	Our first Mix-Tape Exchange was a great deal of fun. So we're keeping up our monthly gathering with this month's SUGGESTED theme: NEW BEGINNINGS (in honor of the upcoming new year) Mixes can be made on CD or Tape. They should include a track listing. They do not have to follow the theme, though that does make it more fun. We get together, talk about the mixes we made, discuss various passions and loves in music, and generally have an awesome time. There is no cost to attend. In order to receive a mix-tape, you will have to bring one to exchange. Bringing friends is encouraged!! We hope to see you there. It's gonna be a blast!
