In case you’re under a rock, Art Conspiracy 5 is this weekend, December 12 at 7pm. Under the headline of ‘housekeeping,” let me first direct you to the weather report (cold) and the parking situation. Wear a coat even though we have heaters and the venue is closed from the cold air. Think of this as a great opportunity to wear all your cute winter boots, scarves and hats. Also – be sure to check out the parking map on the Art Conspiracy homepage and note the General Admission parking lot is 2 blocks from the warehouse. It’s secure and we have professional parking people and off-duty cops as security detail.
