THE X FACTOR EMBRACES THE UNKNOWN
With an 8-piece Gypsy Brass Band and a very special [secret] guest
engaged in conversation by NYC artists/curators
Amoreen Armetta and Molly Dilworth

PLEASE JOIN US ON APRIL 17, 2008, Podkrepa Hall, 6:30 p.m.
For a special back room celebrating "the unknown" as instigator and catalyst. THE X FACTOR explores the experience of "searching" [for meaning, for place, etc.] as a collective, convivial activity. This unusual back room is inspired by THE SEARCHERS, an exhibition curated and organized by Armetta and Dilworth, currently on the view at the Feldman Gallery at PNCA, the Pacific Northwest College of Art.

The back room has invited Armetta and Dilworth to engage in conversation with a very [very] special guest ... a guest that they—and you—will meet on April 17th, as the evening begins. Together we will explore the possibilities of encountering a magnificently creative individual in an environment full of unknowns—spontaneously—with Armetta and Dilworth generously leading the way.

Our special secret guest is a dynamic individual who you do not want to miss! The body AND the mind will be engaged.
