Art, Music, & Culture to Help End Poverty
Thursday, October 29
7:00 PM
Mercury Cafe
2199 California St, Denver

In cooperation with the Poor People's Economic Human Rights Campaign, ArgusFest is helping to coordinate music and cultural support in Denver and Boulder around the upcoming "March to Fulfill the Dream". This historic poor people's march will travel from the Katrina-torn Gulf through the Mississippi Delta and on through the Rust Belt culminating in Detroit at the 2010 US Social Forum.

On Thursday, October 29th at 7PM we will be holding a meeting to share information about the upcoming march and cultural events being organized across the country in support. We will be joined by writer and organizer Lee Ballinger (of Rock-a-Mole Productions and Rock Rap Confidential).

Today, America is facing unprecedented economic decline. Not since the Great Depression have so many people been facing poverty and homelessness. Cheri Honkala of the Poor People's Economic Human Rights Campaign notes that many once upper middle class people have now lost their financial security and are only one paycheck away from living on the streets and the situation is expected to get worse. It is not hopeless though. People are educating themselves about how we got to this place and how we can move forward towards economic justice.

We are calling on artists, musicians, poets, and performers who wish to learn more about the fastest growing social movement in America today and get culturally involved.

Please make it down to the Mercury Café on Thursday, October 29th for Art, Music, & Culture to Help End Poverty!
