LIVE is coming – Emerging Artists call for Submission
LIVE2009 – October 15 to 31
hear/say
Intervention street performances by emerging artists.
Curated by Ikbal SinghCall for Submissions
In this fast paced society the noise of our environment can be deafening, languages blurring and our patience can wear.Emerging artists have the opportunity to participate in LIVE2009 through public performances taking place outside the gallery walls, on Vancouver streets. In hear/say artists can propose to utter their say or receive others. They can either wander among the masses or sit on the flanks to offer an active ear to an unsuspecting public.
Submit details of your performance, the where what when how as well as a short artist statement and bio (both about 1 paragraph long) by email to info AT livebiennale DOT ca with “hear/say submission” in the subject line.
Submissions will be accepted throughout the festival.

I wish I had checked your site sooner, it looks like I just missed this event.
If you are interested in helping me get the word out to help a community centre,This next part is the ask.
I blog for the JCC Sports Dinner. Our Live and silent auctions contribute to funding programs and services at a Vancouver Community Centre. Our deadline for donations is only one month away.
Will you help spread the word by blogging about us? All the content you need is at the JCC Sports Dinner-Blog Kit link to it http://bit.ly/i4MkT
Great Thanks,
Stephanie Scott, Auction Coordinator

At the moment I’m between offices and having a helluva time even blogging about my OWN events (as you can see; I just posted Saturday’s class today).
Also, what IS the JCC sports dinner? I can see that it raises money; I can’t see what it raises money for. Perhaps you could fill us in, or add a page to your blog about it?
