Harwood Art Center will hold its May exhibit openings on the 9th. They are also proud to be part of a new book - A Bigger Boat: The Unlikely Success of the Albuquerque Poetry Slam Scene. Remember the National Poetry Slam in 2005? What have those organizing folks been doing since then? Well, we’ve been working on a book about it. About NPS 2005 and so much more, that is. 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.

Albuquerque has been named the #7 Arts Destination among large cities in the US. We are now in the big league with cities like NYC and Chicago. Thanks everyone for continuing to tell the world that Albuquerque is a great art city.
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.
