Event: A Summons From the King

Who knew "Have it Your Way" meant more than whether or not you wanted your Whopper with or without American Cheese?!

Well, Burger King's cool factor is getting as hot as a cup of their 'JOE'... first the rollout of their YouTube Channel (featuring Seth MacFarlane customizable cartoons) & now I hear about this 'Burger King Studio' which they boast as "part art gallery, part think-tank with a dash of Mad Scientist’s experiments thrown in for good measure…"

Starting this Friday - 5 artists, 5 murals, and 5 artists' shirt designs that you'll get to custom print/layer/get messy with yourself. Opening night will be clad with DJs, drinks, etc. - but the screenprinting continues through Saturday & Sunday.

Opening Party:
Friday, October 24, 7-10pm
featuring live silk screening
music by E6 & Matt Roan

Additional Hours Saturday & Sunday, 11am - 7pm.

1904 W. North Ave. (Bucktown)

Should be fun, and to make it even better - It's FREE!

Event: Freaky Flicks in the Park

Americans love Halloween, like they love their Apple Pie... so Bucktown/Wicker Park brings you both in just one week! (The Bucktown Apple Pie Contest took place last Saturday). The Summer series of movies in the park may be over, but the spooky classic "Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein" will be playing this upcoming Saturday for one night only in Wicker Park. Not that the park isn't already a bit scary to walk through in the dark - Ghosts, Witches & Political costumes are sure to bring the place to another level of frightening!

Saturday, October 25th, 2008
Admission: $5.00
Children 2 and under: FREE!
Haunted Trailers begin at 6pm
