highlights of this week: zine fest, bike happy hour, art openings, and the 1000 lights for peace. we’d been way bad about posting in a timely manner this past week, but hopefully we’ll get caught up on past events before the weekend. what i’m trying to say is keep checking on the blog and come to zine fest – makenzie has a tabel and will be selling her work. way WAY cool.
