The city’s premier grass roots arts festival, Red Hot Art is a weekend long event that serves as a showcase for emerging Twin Cities artists, offering them and arts enthusiasts alike a great opportunity to create flourishing relationships through support and networking. The event, free and open to the public, also provides a way to reclaim the park for neighborhood residents and local families. Our mission is to celebrate the artistic diversity and urban vibrancy of Minneapolis in the historic Stevens Square-Loring Heights neighborhood. Red Hot Art is presented by the Stevens Square Community Organization (SSCO), one of the longest running community organizations in the city.

Each Summer, Red Hot provides an ideal opportunity for artists of all mediums to showcase their work, and brings together 3,500 community participants. This year the festival will host up to 100 booths dedicated to visual artists, 28 musical acts to play on two stages, food from local vendors, and many local community organizations providing hands-on activities for visitors of all ages.

What is No Assumption?

Art of This and Artcodex Present:
No Assumption: A Collaborative Exhibition of Art in a Residence.
Curated by Vandana Jain, Kevin Loecke, Troy Pieper & Mirelle Zacharis.

No Assumption examines the themes surrounding property, the pursuit of happiness, and contemporary American domesticity in the context of the foreclosure crisis. Artists and members of the community have been invited to exhibit relevant artworks and programming in a converted (and foreclosed-upon) storefront home in Northeast Minneapolis’ Arts District. Artworks will explore a broad range of subjects relative to the circumstances the home and its former owner have endured in the effort to keep the home and family intact. Topics examined range from bureaucracy, tragedy and loss; real estate and lending; healthcare and disability; to secrets, memories, labor and leisure; security, and self-preservation within daily domestic existence.

No Assumption, itself born of a personal domestic tragedy, is conceived of as an homage not only to a specific family, a deceased mortgage holder and the property in question, but also to similar scenarios experienced by countless families across the country in recent years. As the clock counts down toward eviction, the property will be transformed into a creative conversation about our rights, our desires, and the structural foundations upon which we build our lives.

"Black Audience opened the attack with a salvo of boogie, blues and AAAAR & B. While the band backed her up on banjo, calimba and bodhran, lead singer Jayanthi Kyle made me spine shiver with her haunting renditions of old blues and gospel numbers." (Jon Behm, Howwastheshow.com)

Long time fan of Black Audience here. Everything above comes from my original post on The Traders' Den in 2008. I would also like to add that Pi was a great establishment. Sure I was only there a few times but I wish it could have been saved but not everything in life is able to be saved. The main reason of the recirculation of this recording is to let you know that Black Audience has another residency at The Red Stag Supper Club in Northeast Minneapolis every Thursday night this month. We've made it to April 2010 everybody.

This show was with Alixa and Naima of Climbing Poetree and Black Blondie.

Show flier coming...need to get to The Triple Rock...
