April Showers Bring... Fun Times!

[Guest guest]

NYC EVENT

We are holding a film screening of Scenes From an Endless War and

White Balance (to think is to forget differences) at 7pm on April

15th at Bluestockings (172 Allen Street) so be sure to tell all of

your peeps about it. These films address issues of militarism,

globalization, and the "war against terrorism" as well as describe

the issues at stake in the failure to understand the layers that are

hidden in the question of whiteness. There is a $5 suggested

donation, but no one will be turned away. Thanks to Video Data Bank

for donating the films.

 

BROOKLYN EVENT

Creme Blush (iluvcremeblush.com) and Dirty Churches are rockin' the

Altar April 22nd at OfficeOps (57 Thames Street, Floor 2).

Festivities start at 8pm. Refreshments will be served so be sure to

bring lots of friends to dance the night away! We will also have a

silent auction with tons of prizes at dirt cheap prices. Check it

out! $5 if you buy tickets before the event (purchase on www.Altar

Magazine.com). $7 at the door. This event is suggested donation and

no one will be turned away.

 

Because we are a grassroots publication, we do all of the

fundraising for printing costs in a grassroots style. That way our

content won't be dictated by our advertisers! Please come out to our

events, bring at least 5 friends and tell at least 5 more, have tons

of fun, and support a good cause (or three) while you're at it!

 

For those of you who don't live in the NYC area (or can't make it

out to our events) and would like to send a donation, here are your

options:

1- Send cash, check or money order made out to "Mandy Van Deven" to:

Altar Magazine

955 Metropolitan Avenue

Suite 4R

Brooklyn NY 11211

2- Use a Credit Card by going to www.paypal.com and sending the

donation to info@a....

 

Everyone who donates $5 or more will get a copy of Altar Magazine

#3. If you donate $25 or more, you will also get an Altar Magazine t-

shirt. A donation of $100 or more (individually or as a group

effort) will buy a 1/4 page advertisement and web banner for the non-

profit/activist organization of your choice that will be seen by

over 6,000 Altar Magazine readers.

 

We ask that all donations be sent by April 15th. Please email me

with any questions or for more information. We appreciate your

support of this independent media project. We could not exist

without it!
