"Got plans on Monday night? Well, you do now! Dust off your crafty pants and come join us for our weekly Craft Night at the Etsy Labs in Brooklyn. Each craft night is also broadcast live into in the Treehouse room of the Virtual Labs. All demos will be shown both in the Labs in Brooklyn and in the Treehouse online. Each week the Etsy Labs organize a skill-sharing project. We provide supplies, tools, snacks, and know-how. Participants are also welcome to bring their own project to work on. Craft night is a time to make things, learn new skills, and hang out. This week, on Monday, May 12, we will be making pennant-style Etsy banners. These little flag banners will be used to aid teams who apply through the Team Grant program. We will demonstrate applique and basic sewing techniques."

"The Journal of Aesthetics and Protest is a Los Angeles based artists collective whose magazine sits at the discursive juncture of fine art, media theory and anti-authoritarian activism. Please join co-founder and collective member Marc Herbst for a presentation and theoretical retrospective of the past seven years of the project’s life...Since March 2001, the Journal has seen itself as one critical and dialogical site for the disparate progressive cultural movement.... One of the many constants throughout this era has been our sense that the Journal is a tool for a large group of engaged cultural activists (politicos, artists, media workers, theorists etc.). For our talk at The Change You Want to See Gallery, we'll attempt to survey the theoretical landscape we've worked through over these 7 years..."
