Mikaela Renz-Whitmore, Don McIver, Danny Solis and Susan McAllister have spent the last eighteen months gathering poetry and stories about the history of the Albuquerque Poetry Slam Community, about organizing and winning NPS 2005, about our poetry community headed into the future. The result is A Bigger Boat: The Unlikely Success of the Albuquerque Poetry Slam Scene, published by UNM Press and slated for release in April 2008.

Next in the Art in Film series sponsored by AABA and albuquerqueARTS Magazine is Bomb It through April 29 at 4:30, 6:30 and 8:30. A lively, engaging, documentary, Bomb It is about the worldwide phenomena of street art, graffiti, mural, and tagging that not only speaks and is spoken to by practitioners and fans of the form but also it's vehement critics and haters. Some of the work is refined and subtle and some of it is outrageously direct and purposely crude. Working Classroom has joined us in sponsoring this controversial film.

Weems Gallery opens in their new location on Montgomery (Louisiana Plaza) on April 1st. I can't even remember how long they have been at Eubank and Candelaria, but it's been at least 25 years. The new space is larger and being close to two galleries on Montgomery (Palette and Nob Hill cooperative in Mossman Center) should be mutually beneficial. Be sure to stop by and say hello.
