Clapperclaw Music + Art Festival 2008 is Saturday

Clapperclaw Music + Art Festival 2008

(www.clapperclawfestival.com) is this Saturday! Presented by Vita.mn, Clapperclaw is an annual festival celebrating breakout music and arts, with a specific focus on promoting Twin Cities artists. It is a mischievous event, one full of surprises that will have exposure to a wide-ranging experience. This year we have expanded to more artists, more fashion, a breadth of bands and we have taken over a warehouse to host it all!

When: Saturday, November 8th. Happy hour art opening and bazaar starts at 4 pm. Fashion show at 7:30pm. Music starts at 8pm and goes until 2am.

Where: The Sound Gallery Warehouse- 414 3rd Ave North, Minneapolis 55401. The Warehouse District, south of Washington Avenue North, by the Twins Stadium Construction. Parking in two ramps next to the venue.

How much: $5 presale and during happy hour (4-7pm), $12 after 7pm. Clapperclaw is 21+, check out www.indietickets.com for pre-sale tickets. Door cover includes all drinks all night long (thanks to our sponsors, and don't forget to tip your bartenders) and a portion of the door proceeds go to Free Arts Minnesota, a non-profit dedicated to bringing arts to kids from abusive or broken home lives. Check them out at www.freeartsminnesota.org.


What: Music, Art, Fashion, Crafts, Film, people, and so much more!
