Arts and Video Festival, this Saturday, April 4



Plan to attend this year's
Arts and Video Festival


The Cabrini Connections Arts and Video festival will be held at the Palette and Chisel Art Institute, 1012 N. Dearborn in Chicago, on Saturday, April 4 from 5:00 to 10 p.m.

There will be a silent auction and raffle. Art will be sold, including the 2008 Peace Hands Mural and the 2009 Mural shown at the left.

In addition, the Cabrini Connections Video Club—Innervision Youth Productions (IYP) will present the documentary called *This is What I Know* and make copies available for sale at $15 each.

The 30-minu
te documentary reveals student perspectives on Cabrini Green and the current redevelopment of the Cabrini-Green public housing neighborhood in Chicago. The youth interviewed each other as well as family, friends, community activists, high school teachers, urban policy professionals, and a developer to help them tell their story.

Members of the Cabrini Connections Board of Directors have pooled their donations, to become a $1,000 level sponsor for the Art Festival. We hope others will add their own contributions.

For instance, if volunteers and supporters of Cabrini Connections, can enlist teams from their company, faith group, or family network to do the same, we can raise enough money to cover one month's rent and utilities, or pay the annual insurance fees that allow us to operate.
