I'm super excited about The Arty Party.

The improv will be The Starter Kit and an unannounced troupe as of yet, followed by what should be an awesome party with a DJ and artists jam with all art for sale.

Here's the gist for the show so far: At 8 we're going to have an improv show. After that, at around 9:15/9:30, we'll turn the stage over to artists to create work while a DJ plays tunes, and there will be free drinks for creators and audience alike. We figure about 4 to 5 artists on stage at a time, and there will be a table in the lobby to put the created works up for sale to the audience -- all proceeds go to the creators. As artists finish, new ones take their spots on stage. This should last until about midnight or possibly later.

Here's one confirmed artist.

So. Excited.
