TUE FEB 18 2020

7:00 PM - 9:00 PM

Just days after the hallmark day of love. DSM Poetry Slam will try to bring 12 days of love each year. Bring your lines of love or heartache. There is always a room full of warmth to welcome both.

Poets start signing in at 6:30p for the first 13 poets. Bring 3 original poems (each should be read in less then 3 min). All poets read in the 1st round, eliminate in the 2nd round and top poets read in the 3rd round for wonderful used books! 5 judges from the audience will hand out scores with the high/low being dropped.

Bring your love for spoken word, bring a friend, make a friend, grab a seat and buy a drink. 18 years in the same location, time and 3rd Tuesday!

JAPAN

Japanese artist Mozu makes incredible, miniature dioramas with tiny, winking electronic devices; their latest piece is The Secret Base of Kubito, a tiny workroom hidden behind an electrical outlet. Mozu says of it, "This work, which was born from the delusion that 'If I'm small, don't make a secret base in the wall', and the wifi router that flashes with a glowing TV are all handmade miniature works." @mozu_world

WHY ARE SOME PEOPLE ARTISTS Bob and Roberta Smith

WHY ARE SOME PEOPLE ARTISTS

Bob and Roberta Smith brought 'Art Amnesty' to the MoMa PS1. "Why are some people artists while others are not? Was Joseph Beuys an idiot when he said everyone is an artist? Do artists think they are a cut above the rest of us? Are the arts a good in themselves, or is it much, much, more complicated than that?" -The Smiths

QUEENS NEW YORK
The Oracle Club was created after artists from different fields gathered in one forum. They were thrilled to know about each other and their interest in similar things even though they focus on different kinds of arts. For them, it was a great thing to meet each other randomly on a forum attended by hundreds of people.
